gr8fatman, you may well have discovered on your own, but worth sharing early and often: there is lots already posted, but any questions please ask anyway.

Follows the standard caution:

The Great Divide in our Golden State is the Good Cause (GC), for which review is available through the email grace of CCWInstructor; however, please do not post your GC here or anywhere else.

Again, Welcome!

You live in a great spot. Have friends in Big Bend and have toured all around there. Trying to get back up in the fall.

Nothing like the Alpine drive in Burney.

Get an ice cream cone nearly a foot tall for about a buck and a half!

Worth the side trip.
