As always, ready, set, discuss.
I always stop in Fort Bragg every time I travel to the redwoods. It's a longer journey than just taking 101, but in addition for gas and food, it's always great to stop at Glass Beach. That area has improved a lot over the past decade, now has a proper parking lot, more of the beach is accessible, there's a paved walking trail. Nice area.
