I'm sure Gene and Jo are proud of their limited edition OEM Lexan rear windscreen. Gene, it's time for the SmartTop roof module

I found this valley campsite called fort ross reef, this ran down onto the rocky coast.

The campsite privided plenty of shelter for the SLK, I was just a little concerned when it got a little windy.

Thanks Brian for sharing all these beautiful pictures! All the best!

**Ynot** · 04-17-2007

Sweet pics as usual, wish I could travel as much as you.

**etyu** · 04-18-2007

Did you think of a book Easty?

**alroumi** · 04-18-2007

Keep the pics comming, the view is just breathtaking and the S roads are making me jealouse.

*easty* · 04-18-2007

The coastal road heading into the redwood national park is stunning driving, as seems to be the norm in the north of california.

Endless beaches

Endless awesome twisties

*easty* · 04-18-2007

Into the redwoods

I arrived into the redwoods quite late and found a little site by the river within the forrest to setup base.

Then the next day I did a little walking and then packed up to enjoy some of the drives through the giant forrest.

*easty* · 04-18-2007

If you have never had the pleasure of seeing how huge these tree's are take a little look at this one that had fallen by the road side.

As driving along you do seldom see a little outside of the forrest, and the scenery is very cool.

The road was loads of fun although a little holy at times.

The map was right and my nav system was clueless of anything within 50miles.

the Pacific was looking very rough and icy cold, but the campground was comfy and had all the essentails. I had a huge fire and a couple of beers and slept to the splash of countless waves.

*easty* · 04-18-2007

The next morning it was raining lightly, I got the SLK boot crammed and headed back down the muddy trail to the 101.

I don't remember in the weeks I've been travelling driving in rain much. Snow, Hail and lot's of sun. It rained a lot as I headed north towards Oregon. I didn't really mind it, just really glad I wasn't packing the tent up.

**Woolly** · 04-18-2007

Stunning picks - not quite Blackpool or Preston - keep em goin . . .

**DesignoSLK** · 04-18-2007

Brian, the redwoods are indeed beautiful! My wife is from Crescent City. We've spent countless hours up there and in Gasquet as well. That's where her mother lives now. It's always a nice trip to get up into the woods...nature at its finest!!

mtiede · 04-18-2007

Those trees really are something aren't they? I remember seeing a branch that fell off one of the trees and thinking, "That BRANCH is bigger than most of the TREES back home!" And have you seen any of the slugs there? They are huge!
