I think i saw Bigfoot, downtown Happy Camp
This region of NorCal is so remote, there's nothing up here.
Nothing commercial, this used to be all logging for industry but since the 90s, a lot of the logging mills, every town had one, are long gone.
Even gas is scarce and we fill up at unmanned card locks along the way. Towns are so tiny, there's no sit-down restaurants anywhere.

Takes a few minutes to top off the bikes on these old pumps. Watching the dials rotate, something out of the 70s. We can go 100 miles between even seeing a fuel station up here in far northern California so we don't pass them up. Although Gary likes to make fun of me on his GSA. It has a 9 gallon tank. The Ducati XDiavel, not so much.
No sit down restaurants in Happy Camp (it's the biggest town around) means we employ something we learned very quickly during covid, head to the small-town grocery store and get some eats & drinks.
Don't judge me.
Soon as we sat down, the town stray dog showed up.

No i'm not gonna feed you.
Largest Dream Catcher anywhere
Happy Camp is the middle of Highway 96, this 150-miles of curves is so long, we split it in half with a stop there.
Our general rule on these tours is we stop about every hour to kick tires and take a break, with 150 miles of curves, we'll stop 2 or 3 times along this road, which means a road like this can take half the day just to ride it.

Highway 96 follows the contours of the Klamath River matching the curves and turns of the river, No people up here, a few tiny towns, but very little other traffic if any.
The Klamath River recently made national news with the removal of dams further up river near the Oregon border. Native tribes fought in the courts for years to get 100-yr ol dams removed and restore the salmon population. The dams were recently removed and the intent is to restore the river to the way it was prior to the dams.
Nice and for the most part, untouched wilderness. 
I'll be leading my 250th tour next year in August - what a milestone!
Bald Hills Rd - it's time to ride this very unusual road up and over the range to the Pacific Coast - but Coast is in the title of this ride, so we gotta go find some ocean.
We don't get to ride this road very often

@Dnyce We won't ride Nevada till Sept 2026 but it's already scheduled in the future.
Something magical about wide open spaces.
Hard to explain riding the American Southwest.

But if you are based in SoCal, (likely half our tour participants are based in SoCal), then Southern Foothills, Parkfield, SoCal, Sequoia, Southern Sierra, and Central Coast (half the list) are all local to you and in your backyard.
Our SoCal tour which is focused on Los Angeles & San Diego Mountain ranges is Memorial Day Weekend 2025.
