The northern parts of CA are not too busy. We did a days loop, just truck around the coastal road, WPs 2 & 3. very beautiful but oh, what a road! Most of it is barely a lane wide, full of potholes & some sections just gravel. Think Orange Valley road. No wider.
The road gets busier as we go south, At Legget, CA highway 101 stays inland & highway 1 goes to the coast & stays there. Portions of the highway are impassible for a vehicle our size, 55' with trailer, so we based ourselves at Fort Bragg (68) & Bodega Bay (75) to do the small road stuff. Some of it is no wider than a Bermuda road with drop offs to the ocean hundreds of feet below. This is one of the few areas where Carolyn, sitting in the passenger seat, has put her hands up to the side of her head so that she could not see down. Highway 1 is not as dangerous as those roads seen on IRT Hymalayas, but you get the idea.

Lots of hills are this steep
How many billions of these shots have been taken?
