Make your Reservations for the First Annual California North Coast Lighthouse Tour (http://redwoodempiremini.com/PDF/REME%202007%20Lighthouse%20Tour.pdf). Click here for a history of our lighthouses (http://www.notfrisco.com/calmem/lighthouses/chrono1.html).

We will be starting our 550 mile run Saturday morning, April 7 in beautiful Crescent City at 9 am. Because of the number of stops we will be making, everyone will be on their own as far as how much time they want to spend at each lighthouse. Because the weekend is full of lighthouse tours, it is strongly advised to bring picnic lunches to eat at the lighthouse of your choice to save some time. The attached map does allow for a 15-45 minute stop at each lighthouse plus additional time for lunch breaks.

04/07/07 Run begins in the Anchor Beach Inn parking lot at 880 US-101, Crescent City, CA 95531 Lighthouses visited include Point St. George Lighthouse, Battery Point Lighthouse, Trinidad Head Lighthouse, Table Bluff Lighthouse, and Punta Gorda Lighthouse. We will be spending the night in Garberville
