Lost, cuz Highway 1 cuts inland to 101, leaving a big chunk without paved roads; lots of logging roads. It starts not very far NW from me. I haven't been in a few years, but we have a big party at Usal Beach, which was a logging town, now vanished. They used to cable the logs out to ships, to be taken down to SF. Used to watch pelicans and peregrines diving for fish. Still has a few old growth redwoods.
