Mendocino Green * Highway One reaches the Mendocino Coast among the steep coastal hills, affording breathtaking views on a verdurous spring day. * 1737 x 1199 * (1.41MB)
Mendocino Stacks * Imagine trying to live on so tiny an island, surrounded by treacherous shoals and rocks and hungry great whites. Hence the lack of habitation on this charming coastal island. * 1706 x 1158 * (1.27MB)
Mendocino Haze * On a sunny afternoon, it is not unusual for the ocean to kick up a shroud of mist to embrace the coastal hills. * 1724 x 1166 * (2.2MB)
Mendocino Afternoon * Some of the grasslands in California remain golden brown yearlong. This stretch of coastline probably receives 30 to 40 inches of rain a year, but even in the second week of April, it's as brown as a summer day. * 1750 x 1182 * (1.34MB)
