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.

BIG RIVER

It was a really nice morning on Big River, a little warmer than it has been lately.  The river was a beautiful color and very clear, and the tide very high.

Again, I want to thank John for most all of our pictures.  He's still down at Stanford and this morning, he said to say hello to all and that he missed all of us.

                             
Present today: Joe, Shari, Leon, Pat, Charlene, Deb, Sam, Bob, Nancy and Tom (10).

At 9:00 next Sunday, there is a 7.2 foot high tide.  I thought it would be very pretty either at Big River or at MacKerricher State Park.  We just went to Big River, so next Sunday it will be Lake Cleone.  We will park in the parking lot at the Lake and from there, you can go either north or south.  Hopefully, the very high tide does not cause the lake to flood.  I think it will be okay.


NEXT SUNDAY, DECEMBER 13TH @ 8:00 A.M.:  GROUP RUN/WALK/BIKE, LAKE CLEONE.  The last time we started here was in August of 2018.  It's a good place, pretty views and you can go any direction.  

EVERY TUESDAY AND THURSDAY, GROUP RUN/WALK @ 7:30 A.M.:  Beginning behind the Fort Bragg Fire Station on Tuesdays and on Big River Logging Road on Thursdays.
