Trip Report

Heavy coastal fog didn’t stop ten members and three newbies. We started on east side of highway, hiked China Creek trail all down to Hobbit Trail trailhead where we jumped over the highway 101 and continue west to the beach. In fog and high tide we hiked Hobbit beach all way north up to Big Creek and then back south to the Carl G. Washburne Memorial State Park. Happy folks!
