A Mendocino County Wilderness Adventure.
Explore Fort Bragg's Noyo River Valley by Tracks and Kayaks.
Ride the Skunk Train from Fort Bragg to Northspur. On the return from Northspur, disembark from the train to kayak 2.5 miles on the Noyo River Estuary back to Fort Bragg.
On the return trip, the train stops before its last crossing of the Noyo River. Tracks to Kayaks participants are greeted there by their kayak guide (Cate or Jeff from Liquid Fusion Kayaking). A quick paddle lesson is then followed by a 2.5 mile leisurely paddle down the Noyo River to Dolphin Isle. While paddling, learn about the wildlife and ecology of the Noyo River watershed. The 2.5 miles takes approximately 1.5 hours and is then followed by a shuttle ride back to the train depot.
Cost: $119/adult, $94/kids

Moms Dine Free!

The Mendo Bistro is located upstairs in the Company Store in Fort bragg, CA. Need dinner suggestions for Mother's Day? Not only is the Mendo Bistro delicious, and affordable, but mom's dine free on Sunday, May 8th! They're making it easy to treat mom well! Bring mom out to dinner at Mendo Bistro and her dinner is on them!

The fine print. There needs to be at least one paying customer per mom. If there are multiple generations of moms, great. Each mom gets a free dinner as long as there is a paying customer to match each mom. Please have mom bring a picture (not for proof of motherhood, but because they're curious).
