Could not agree with you more my friend! Your pictures are awesome too, you know me between cutting, running my dogs, etc. I see those gullies, streams, stumps and big trees, many times, and never enough. Thought it was cool I used to be in a hunting club in point arena, and Gualala. Ten thousand acres. Was lp, then Mendocino forest products. Eureka hill is the point arena side. Jerry beranek put some cutting from this side, in his high climbers and timber fallers book. Also said the mountain view road, was some of the most rugged country they fell timber in. Some of the trees fell end over end. My friends the Parmeters also logged up there. I used to explore all the time up there, loved it.I understand all too well, as I have travelled all across this great landmass we call North America I am in awe of what nature has provided for us. Some people see the wilderness as a frightful place due mostly to their inexperience with nature. For me it is my second home, my whole life has been full to the brim of outdoor wilderness adventures, with my witts and a few hand tools I can spend many days at a time out there just soaking up the atmosphere. It seems I never grow tired of it.
Pretty funny. We used to stop there and throw apples to the horse that was there a few years ago.
That was called Berry Glen, there was a small market and motel there, the Himalayan Blackberrys
ate it.
So that explains where the name "Berry Glen" came from for the new Berry Glen trail that they extended from there up the hill to connect with Lady Bird Johnson Grove's looped trail.
Stopped at Bull Creek on the way to Mattole yesterday and paid homage to a few of our favorites.
Planning lay-outs were you?
Me? Never. Wellllll, maybe just a little. Okay...a lot. Old habits are hard to break.
I never get tired of admiring this outlaw. Lauri lane off Joy road, near Bodega.
