quick stop on skyline

before long, we reached Pescadero beach

Caltrans nicely were closing all the beach parking lots as we arrived

We then drove down Hwy 1 to hit a few beaches:

found a nice surfer

the next beach

where skyline of the beach, ends up

We ended up going to Shark Fin Cove or lunch:

railroad to nowhere

I went to check out the cave which was really a storm drain

didn't smell so good :)

nice hole in the rock

After lunch, we drove back up on bonny doon road. which was find until we hite what looked like snow on the road. How as that possible? Turns out, it hailed so much that the hail accumulated on the ground and looked like snow:

it was melting, but super slick

Eventually, after driving not as fast as I wished due to the uncertain roads, we got to 236 and big basin redwoods, which was closed as expected:

After that, it was a fun drive up 236, and 9 back home.
