Redwing wrote: I see beautiful blue skys but wingnut must be suffering Blue skys yes, but the elevation there was around 9K-10K feet, and we were climbing to around 12K, so the temperatures were cool. Those big cliffs next to the road were making Wingnut & Wingnut Junior a bit uneasy though.MC Pete is a rider big time, and most definitely a tough one. He's also a major gentleman. The bike Wingnut and Junior were riding was a rental that MC Pete rented and then let them ride it on the Million Dollar highway with me. At the end he bought us all lunch.  He's a great guy for sure!John Last edited on Mon Sep 28th, 2009 08:37 pm by Jluvs2dive ____________________ Blue 2000 GL1500SE Bought with just under 9000 miles on 08/19/2008also 84 Aspy 84 Interstate past 86 GL1200 Aspy 84 Standard 87 Interstate 80 Yam Midnight Special 1100 79 Suz SP400 Enduro 72 Honda SL350 81 Honda XR500 |

Other than him wishing he was driving on the left when the cliffs were on the right, he did great.  You never would have known he was from a country the drives on the wrong side of the road.

While en route to Montrose, I meet up with a fella named Carl, who rode a ST 1300. We hooked up for a few days and he introduced me to some of what Northern California has to offer the touring motorcyclist Here's a shot of myself at the start of a wicked Gem of a twisty road in N CA, ......  There is a section of road 10 miles long that puts The Dragon to shame  and I ground off my Gremlin Bell along with other bits of undercarriage/highway peg mounts on one of the corners there. This road was very 'entertaining' as it had it all, including high speed sweepers. vistas and blind dips that I managed to get the Ole Wing airborne and do a 'cross-up'  This road takes you out to the Coast and through a few groves of Giant Coastal Redwoods, making for some 'enchanted riding'.  We camped amongst some beautiful specimens of those Giant Coastal Redwoods. What a camping spot!   these trees are ... Big  did I mention these trees are ... B I G  I loved this area of California.

Not at all, my dear Redwing, as it is in an 'organized' campground, administered by the County. If you are thinking about "wild life", there might be the odd Black Bear around and some little critters(Squirrel, mice, raccoon, skunk) ... maybe the odd Mountain Lion(unlikely, but possible), but on the whole, quite safe indeed, provided you keep a clean camp.(meaning .... don't leave food around on the table/tent, or other smelly attractants!) If you mean danger from falling limbs/timber, these trees are pretty durned sturdy, unlike large Cottonwoods, which are also named 'Widow Makers', because of their tendancy to 'shed' large branches and blow over/split. Unlike a lot of Europe, 'wild camping/camping at large' is still widely available/the norm, over on this side of the pond. Hope that answers your question. Dusty

more of a chance to be bothered by black bears than the 2 legged variety of Vermin.

Thank you to all for sharing their video footage and stills pictures, I am enjoying them greatly, but with a twinge of sadness that we could not be there this year.
