Carpool at pullout for Gualala business directory just north of bridge at 9:50. Start at 10:00 at Dard and Mary Hunter's house on 205 Screech Owl where we can leave our lunches (east on Halcyon, left on Deer Trail, left on Screech Owl.) Do the lower loop of the Pomo Creek Trail continuing to the end turning left on Deer Trail at post 146 and walking to post 148. Walk the Pomo Hillside Trail back to post 147, Deer Trail south to Halcyon where we will catch the Saloon Trail at post 141 and take it to post 133, walking on Deer Trail again and then walking across the highway, turning right on Leeward. Walk north to Tallgrass continuing until you come to the spot where the golf cart path passes under Highway One. Hike under the Highway and continue on the trail until you intersect the Saloon Trail. Turn left and walk north on the trail ending at Screech Owl where we can join Dard to eat our lunches.

ReplyDeleteODE TO DARD
The Ramblers are gathered for lunch today,
To honor Dard Hunter in a special way.
Our friend is retiring after an illustrious career,
Of leading the Ramblers into the woods…..
without fear.
He will be sorely missed for his hikes were the best,
But now we all know now that Dard needs a rest.
So cake will be served and we’ll all reminisce,
About time swiftly passing……
and friendships everlasting.
So let Dard relax while Mary bakes cakes and
The Ramblers will keep on rambling
because we have what it takes.
