The Fog Dodgers invite all residents and visitors of the Mendocino Coast to join us on our weekly group runs and walks. We have runners and walkers of all abilities (and even some bikers) and we have only one "rule" - we start at exactly 8:00 a.m. on Sundays. Exercise at your own pace (1/2 hour out, 1/2 hour back) and experience the fresh Mendocino coastal air.

Fog Dodgers provides a fun, safe way to explore some of our local trails and back roads and to meet new friends. You can find out where we're going to be by reading the bottom of last week's post, then clicking on the "Our Routes" tab above. We average 15-20 persons each Sunday and typically half will go to breakfast together afterwards at a nearby restaurant.

RUSSIAN GULCH

Several Fogdodgers are away from the area but a decent number showed up for our hike last Sunday at RUSSIAN GULCH. The campground is closed but we all appreciated the work that has been done on the trail that was once full of mud and water. Hiking were John, Eric, Joe, Jean, Fran, Shari, Mark, Charlene, Sky, Zelda, Beth, and Bob. On the way back we saw an osprey starting a nest in a tall dead tree.

Seven of us went to breakfast at Saint Anthony's, or "breakfast at Tony's" as some would say. This time the wait for french toast was decent.

John had provided lots of photos:
