Northern
California Lodging
The massive and eerily silent volcanic lands of northern California have
more in common with Oregon and Washington than with the rest of the state.
Its small settlements live by logging, fishing and farming, though locals
have been joined in recent years by New Agers, ex-hippies, and an ever-growing
contingent of tourists. Once you're past the atypically lush valleys of
the Wine Country , the coast stretches for four hundred miles of rugged
bluffs and forests. Aside from the beautiful deserted beaches that stripe
the coast, trees are the big attraction, thousands of years old and hundreds
of feet high, dominating a landscape swathed in swirling mists. The Redwood
National Park teems with campers and hikers in summer, but out of season
it can be idyllic. The remote wildernesses of the interior can be enchanting,
especially around the Shasta Cascade and Lassen Volcanic National Park
.
Public transportation is, not surprisingly, scarce, though
Greyhound buses run from San Francisco and Sacramento up and down I-5
and US-101.
