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.

Jackson Demonstration State Forest, Road 450

Winter is coming! It was a brisk low fifties this morning when eleven two-legged and one  four-legged hikers/runners gathered at 8AM today on Road 450. Lots of changes taking place there. Two-lane logging road sections, straw, chipped rocks and soft dirt. Clearly the logging is in full form. We're missing quite a few of our regulars who are out of town for one reason or another and hope that they are all having a great time.

Our runners and walkers this morning included John L., Bob C., Charlene, Neil, Michael & Sarah, Tom and his faithful companion Beny (sorry for the misspelling of your name last week, Beny), Gay and Mark T., and Rick and Nancy. No one went out to breakfast today but I'm sure we've all eaten either before or after the walk.

Here are a few photos from John. Enjoy!

Great mailbox. I imagine it's on Simpson Lane or nearby.


Crab buoys or, as John would say, "crab boys," arrayed outside to dry on a property near Simpson Lane.
