[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by dblstack</i> <br /><br />LC, <br />I hadn't thought about your suggestion of the WP in California on the Feather River Route. That's a beauty too. I've wanted to get out there to see that line for quite a while now. The photos I've seen and the topo maps sure show an amazing piece of RR engineering there with the tunnels and with how the line snakes up and back in the valley there. <br />Good choice! - Stack <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />When my orders transferred me from San Diego to Norfolk (VA), we drove up through the Feather River Canyon area taking the scenic routes all the way. I thoroughly enjoyed that drive, and the scenery is absolutely beautiful. I especially remember driving along the Feather River and seeing the railway across the river, following the route of the river. That seemed to me to be one of the best places to cabride. <br /> <br />I had originally planned to say anywhere in the mountains of Montana & Wyoming as well as points north (first) and south (second), but the Feather River takes first choice. <br /> <br />Thank you both for suggesting the FR.
