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.

Navarro Ridge Road

Thank you, John L.

It couldn't get much better! It's Springtime here but it looked a lot like summer. Along the coast and in the river canyons lie a thick blanket of fog. Driving up Navarro Ridge, we broke into sunshine and bright blue, 50 degree skies, just a hundred feet west of the Grange. Our walk/run along the ridge just couldn't be better. It was a beautiful morning, enjoyed by: Nancy T. and Roger, Tanya, Bob, John, Nancy B. and Rick, Cindy and Jim, Fran, Dorothy, Nancy and Tom (13). Seven stayed on for breakfast at the Grange.

For next week, please read last week's blog entry regarding volunteer work at Russian Gulch State Park. For those interested in helping our State Parks, you could stick around after our run/walk and do a little work. Also, please note in that same blog entry, that I would like names of Fog Dodgers that would be interested in helping to maintain the Russian Gulch trail. This is in addition to the one day effort next Sunday. Please send your name to me at triley(AT)mcn.org . We have a "core" group already, made up of those that run Russian Gulch each Tuesday but would like more names, doesn't matter whether you run or walk. Do you prune?

NEXT SUNDAY, April 29 @ 8:00 A.M.: Russian Gulch State Park, see "Our Routes" above.
EVERY TUESDAY @ 7:00 A.M.: RUSSIAN GULCH STATE PARK, beginning on Point Cabrillo Drive, 1/10 of a mile north of its south end.
EVERY THURSDAY @ 7:00 A.M.: VAN DAMME STATE PARK, beginning at the beach.
