Pacific Coast

A view down the Lost Coast south of Ferndale, California. This area was named the "Lost Coast" after the area experienced depopulation in the 1930s. In addition, the steepness and related geo-technical challenges of the coastal mountains made this stretch of coastline too costly for state highway or county road builders to establish routes through the area, leaving it the most undeveloped and remote portion of the California coast.

 

Hope you have a great weekend. Thank you all for your visits, comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.
