Enthusiast II
Hello All!
So, in a few weeks, I'm heading to California for vacation. The plan is to rent a vehicle, and do some exploring and camping. I found this awesome company: https://www.pacificoverlander.com and plan to rent the 4Runner with pop-up tent. This will be my first time trekking through Cali by overland vehicle. I was there previously, and did the PCH/ Route 1 via car, from SF down to Monterey. This time around, I bringing my best friend who has never been to California. We're both professional photographers, and amateur explorers (via overlanding anyway). Since it's not my rig, I don't intend on doing anything that would either get me stuck, or jeopardize the vehicle itself. I am looking forward to camping out though!
The start point is SF, to pick up the rig: March 30th
The end point currently is SF also: April 5th
Things I'd like to see/ show my friend:
- Bixby Bridge
- Pfeiffer Beach
- McKay Falls
- Esalen Institute/ hot springs
- Yosemite/ Half Dome
Possibilities:
- Something between Yosemite and Sacramento (can visit a friend in Sacramento)
- Something between Sacramento and SF
- Or do I continue south along the coast until I have to turn back?
- If anyone wants to meet-up along the way, heck yes!
That's as far as I've gotten trip-wise. Any ideas or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
