In an effort to escape the United States (and cursing the driver for going east instead of north) we decide to rectify the situation and drive due north. After wasting a bit of time on Lake Tahoe the group treks north to the town of Susanville, CA: 264 mi north of Yosemite. There is nothing interesting in Susanville. Please don’t pick up hitchhikers as they may be prison escapees.
Okay, I’m new to this - never driven in the US before, but north seems like a good direction to head - Oregon here we come (please keep your hands inside the vehicle at all time - driver known to swerve without warning).
Sorry guys, the views of all these National Forests are great, but I have a brewery visit in mind - 304 miles (is an extra 4 miles allowed???) north of Susanville CA, we come to a screeching halt at the Deschutes Brewery Brew Pub in Bend, OR! Enjoy folks, but just remember, someone’s gotta drive the next leg, and it ain’t me!!!
