Our first exploration in northern California led us from our rv park in Klamath south on US 101 (aka the Pacific Coast Scenic Byway) following the Klamath River to the Newton B. Drury Scenic Parkway and stopped at the Prairie Creek Visitor Center. We took the same route home.
We took a little detour along part of the Coastal Trail which led to fishing access points along the Klamath.
US 101 goes through the Redwoods National Park. The Drury Scenic Parkway goes through the Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park that lies entirely within the National Park.
We stopped at a pull out to admire the tall old giants.
I took a picture of Duane hugging this redwood. He is that tiny little white spot at the lower right end of the tree.
After stopping at the Visitor Center and stamping our passports, we retraced our ride. We stopped at the Big Tree Wayside to admire the Big Tree, of course.

Not bad for our first CA ride.
