Over the Mountains and thru the Woods Pumpkin Run - Saturday October 29th

 


Your Host For This Event: 

Tasha Hudick

Join your fellow MINI enthusiasts for a spirited drive through the mountains and woods from Woodside to the coast. We'll drive past historic cemeteries, world famous driving roads, towering redwoods and breathtaking coastal cliffs ending with a visit to a sprawling pumpkin and vegetable stand south of Half Moon Bay. Lots of twisty roads and places to get into high gear.

We will meet in the Target parking lot in Redwood City and head up Highway 84 past the Historic Union Cemetery, the oldest burial site in San Mateo County (https://historicunioncemetery.org/). 



Passing through the historic town of Woodside and up to Alice's Restaurant at the corner of Highway 35 and 84.

Heading south on Skyline Blvd, we'll make a quick stop at Windy Hill Anniversary Picnic grounds for pictures, depending on how full the lot is, and a bathroom break (note these are park bathrooms, read pit stop!).

Get ready for the twisties as we head down Alpine Road to Pescadero Creek Road where towering redwoods and Memorial Park will envelop us in a lush temperate rainforest.

Redwoods give way to rolling farmlands once we reach Pescadero with a quick pass through the historic downtown and past Mount Hope Cemetery on Stage Road and on to San Gregorio, another stagecoach stop along our route.



A slight jaunt along Highway 1 and the beautiful coastal cliffs will bring us to Bob's Pumpkin Farm and Vegetable Stand, for that last minute pumpkin. Don't need any more pumpkins, Bob's has a cute little farm and fresh coastal veggies to fill your boot with!
