Turn left (tending SW) to the park @ 39.9428, -123.9645

Check it out on the web and Google Earth. You can't get anymore "out there" than this.

Looked it up on GoogleEarth. This is just the exact type of place I'm looking for. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I hope my wife and I can stop there on our coast trip. I'm just afraid that once we've camped there will never want to return to the desert in Nevada.

AMen to that Mack!!

Don't worry you guys, it's not that addictive. A week or so under the trees, especially in the winter fog and drizzle, will give you such a case of claustrophobia that you'll be running for Nevada where you can see the whole horizon.

NY = New Year's, not New York.

When I say that I lost a lot of brain cells in the 70's and 80's, I'm not joking.

Have a great trip. Would love to see a report.
