    Nor-Cal however you define it is culturally starved compared to the rest of the state. With that being said we have some of the most beautiful scenery to be seen anywhere in the country. Beware though, last year's fires have diminished the scenery significantly. However, within 30/40 minutes you can go from 500 ft elevation to 4/5/6K ft elevation in any one of three directions. Some locations have so many tight steep turns you have to shift into 1st or 2nd to safely negotiate them and you can even get a glimpse of your own license plate. That would be on highway 3 over Scott Mountain or on the road through Lassen Park. When my wife and I take off for a weekend jaunt it ends up being a minimum of a 180 to 200 mile round trip. Most people don't like to ride that far at one time. But then there are some short rides if you can't take the thin air.
