I had never been on this road before, it is broken into three distinct sections. The first section goes from Lake Sonoma to a bridge. It's beautiful and consists of smooth sweeping turns along a ridge line in good condition. Once you get the bridge the road changes and becomes more of a county road. The second section is narrow, winding, in poorer condition and even 1 lane in many sections. The last third is more similar to the first but not as nice. All together this gave me about 35 miles of twisty mountain roads.
Coming back I took HWY 1 south from Sea Ranch to Jenner and then 116/River Rd back to 101. HWY 1 is, for the most part in good condition. I did hit a couple wash outs going both ways that were down to 1 lane but they were all clearly marked.
It was a beautiful day and great drive.

I'd love to drive up the coast, stop at that corner store, and leisurely take Skaggs all the way back to 101. That's a day's worth of driving right there.
Sadly, I'm concerned about fuel consumption unless they have a gas station somewhere along that route (memory is failing me).
