Now here’s a spot in California that escapes many general guidebook writers–the Oroville to Quincy Highway.
I’ve never traveled this road before. I look forward to hearing all about the fabulous metropolis of Quincy from my parents, who will be visiting the nearby Western Pacific Railroad Museum in Portola, CA this summer. Apparently Portola does not contain a suitable hostelry (Mom is picky about those things). So they’ll stay in Quincy. Which is better?
Next time I visit North Gold Country, I’ll detour to CA-162 and check it out. Looks like good fishing and possibly some boating up there. And trains. Thanks to early training (ha ha) from Dad, I do honestly love me some trains.
