Great photos and information! We couldn’t find a shuttle, and therefore we did an out and back from Mattole to Spanish Ridge and took Cooskie Creek to Spanish Ridge trail above the LCT and returned on the beach. It was steep and beautiful! Felt very remote and untraveled. Excellent views!

We just did almost this loop as a 3 day backpacking trip, with the difference of starting from Black sand beach trailhead and leaving the coast at Cooksie spur, not going all the way to Punta Gorda. Beautiful trip.

Very nice route, Leor. Great photos too. I’ve hiked about half of that, but going counterclockwise from Saddle Mtn trailhead. I have a few photos from some of those very spots. I remember coming up the Buck Creek trail…. It’s a fairly steep section there. That trailhead takes some effort to get to in itself, my truck nearly died back there… dodged a bullet luckily!
