We had the opportunity to spend one of our days taking a trip to the Lost Coast. From Trinidad it was probably about a 2 hour drive. That was made up of a 45 minute drive to the town of Ferndale a quaint little Victorian town nestled in the pastures of California and then an hour+ drive on a one lane (well, not marked anyway) road through the hills and down to the coast.

The area is pretty desolate. The cows that graze on the Lost Coast are even luckier than the cows that graze down in Palo Alto. Their pasture runs right up to the Pacific Ocean. I doubt they spend a whole lot of time out there as there’s not really any grass.

This image is of the coastline. From the beach there was probably about 100 years of these large rocks that you could walk out on. As we were leaving the tide was on its way in. Definitely not somewhere you want to get stuck…
