Carpool at the Gualala Business Directory pullout just north of bridge
at 9:45, and meet at the Sea Ranch Lodge north (additional) parking lot
at 10:00. Walk north from the parking lot to the fire road. Turn left,
then right to marker 1. Go down the stairs and walk on the beach to the
north end, returning to the stairs (Note: The stairs are steep!). From
marker 1, walk south to the first gate marked with the wildflower path
marker and follow the path to Black Point, the barn, and Bihler Point.
Continue on the marked path toward the Lodge, past the old sheepherder's
cabin, and turn left on the main trail. Follow the Bluff Trail from
marker 1 to 3, turn right and continue through the hedgerow to marker
3C, then right on Moonraker to the fire road gate at Black Point Reach.
At the end of the fire trail we will go to either the barn or the Lodge
chair area for our lunches. Note: If it's windy, the leader may modify
the plan.
