Fort Ross State Historic Park

Fort Ross State Historic Park
#TakeAHike Fort Ross, the southernmost Russian outpost in North America, stands on a high ocean bluff, with a calm sheltered cove below.
Begin your outing at the visitor center, to absorb the history of the various cultures that mingled in this settlement—Russian, Alaskan, and native and mixed-heritage Californian. 
Back outside the fort's main entry, a gravel road travels a few hundred yards out onto the coastal terrace before dropping steeply to a small cove.

First Russian settlement in early 1800s...
Also site of California's first windmills and shipbuilding...
So, I was on a road down the coast, and really needed to use the restroom. I pulled in to the first place I saw. I didn’t make it to the restroom, but I did find this place. In the end, it turned out to be a happy accident.
