This was made possible by the shuttle ride black sands to Mattole with lost coast adventures. Connor, who was our driver, was waiting for us when we arrived. He got us to our destination quickly and provided a ton of useful info about what to expect during our 3 day trek. Silvia, the office manager was also very helpful. She quickly responded to our emails even when the office was closed. She also accommodated our needy group of first timers above and beyond what is to be expected. I highly recommend the lost coast and lost coast adventures adventures!

I was just establishing my "cheese legs" when I had a schmear of it on a grainy cracker. The cheese was so delicious it stopped me in my tracks. Ever since I've been a fan of every cheese from Cypress Grove. My favs are the soft ripened varieties including all the Humboldt Fog remixes. The fresh cups are super spreadable varieties that can transform even the most casual cheese courses into something special. I love when I stumble on one I've never tried - it lands in my grocery basket without as much as a second guess. Can't wait for the Chipotle Cacao remix! I can't remember a cheese course I've served without Humboldt Fog - if I had a dollar for every time someone told me I turned them onto HF, I'd have a small fortune. My nephew at 10 years old (some 20 years ago) practically invented the Humboldt Fog burger...the kid added HF on a burger before I did! Love the heck outta you Cypress Grove...keep those HF remixes coming!

We were given a delightful tour by one of the hosts (I want to say her name was Ashley?), who told us all about the origin of Cypress, the cheeseaking process, and the types of cheese. I really enjoyed seeing some of the cheeses aging, and learning about the company (only 70 employees!). The best benefit of stopping by is that you will get a bomb little "gift box" with samples of their cheeses. So cute and such wonderful cheeses! The purple haze is my fav - I put it on everything. Thanks for the cool tour and for making awesome cheese, Mary and crew!

We had to visit this Humboldt brewery before we left Eureka. It was our last day over the 4th of…read moreJuly weekend. Opening time was 1 pm and it was perfect as it was on the way to our hotel from a morning visit to the town of Ferndale. There were only a few guests when the gates opened but wait times filled up fast as there was only one staff tending the taps and gift shop. We were second in line, so it wasn't much of a wait for us. I ordered a flight of five with regular ABVs (alcohol by volume) which included the iconic Downtown Brown, Harvest Wheat, Peanut Butter Chocolate Stout, Great White and Lost Coast Pilsner. I and the other patrons were bummed that the Indica IPA wasn't on tap so I ended up purchasing a six pack. I wanted a totally different variety of beers when we had dinner at LCB's restaurant a few nights before. The restaurant offers a flight of 6 on tap BTW. I'm more of a wine person when given a choice, but the tasting the brews of LCB was one opportunity I wasn't going to miss while I was here. I like IPA and wheat among the beers but ended up liking all of them. Even the dark stouts. Unlike, the restaurant, they only serve chips (unpacked) and salsa (sealed) here. My wife (designated driver) and son opted to get a taster of their root beer and a couple scoops of ice cream from the gift shop. We ended up purchasing a bright tie-dyed tee LCB tee and a fridge magnet.

So no tours, yet. Price - $16 + generous tip. Sunday is the best day to come if you are price conscious. Of course today is Wed... Owner Comments - Congrat on so many successes since 1989.

Not to mention that we took this tour in the off-season where the temperatures were rather cold. Our guide Eileen was VERY sweet and kind in accomodating my fiance and I.

Eileen's knowledge of the area and expertise were perfect in both helping me to find a beautiful spot to propose, as well as to have a fun and educational experience learning about SO many things in that part of the forest. I will certainly be coming back to explore the many other parts of the forest with them in the future (and maybe during a more temperate season). Thank you all for making the experience as perfect as it was!

My instructor was very well versed and accredited to teach the course. He was also extremely patient with us newbies and took into account that we each had different body types and physical abilities. I especially appreciated the philosophy of the importance of safety at every moment. There were certainly little nuances I would not have thought of on my own. Best of all, it was REALLY FUN! I got to shoot 21 different firearms and it facilitated my understanding of what works for me and what I'd like to explore more. I recommend this course for anyone who is new to the sport or even the old dogs with rusty skills. I'm now an old dog with new skills and appreciation.

There are over 100 miles of trail in this park and plenty of river access, providing something for everyone.
