Anybody been to McKerricher lately?

Howdy all..

Been itching to get out again.
The wife is commanding that we go to the coast so I guess that's where we have to go.
Not too excited about pulling from Willits to 1.

I thought I'd ask if anyone has been up to McKerricher SP here in CA in the past few months.

We haven't been over there in quite some time and I was wondering if getting our somewhat large fiver in there would be a real hassle.

Last time over there we backed our 28 foot TT in on the Cleone side.
I don't remember it being a massive challenge.

If we don't get lucky there I guess we could go up to Pomo.
Pomo might be better anyway...

TIA

We spent a night in McKerricher about a month ago, very nice CG and then drove highway 1 on up to Leggett. You will have your hands full putting a large fiver into McKerricher. I am sure it can be done but the roads are tight and most of the sites tighter.

You are right, Willets to 1 is no place for a larger fiver but then neither is 1 from McKerricher up to Leggett. We were in a 24' Class C and anything bigger would have been a stretch.

This is not to say that folks don't do it but they are over the double yellow on most of the tight switchbacks and kicking up dust on inside turns. I guess they don't mind putting the lives of others in danger to serve their own self absorbed agendas (do I sound like a guy who has come around a blind curve to find my lane half full of Class A?).

Bottom line, not every rig can safely negotiate every road. Like Clint Eastwood/Harry Callahan said.... "a man's got to know his limitations". :E
