well, you are quite all the way out in the boonies, but pretty close.
Use to live in SoCal (Chino), but loved camping up in the Kings Canyon Park, Convict lake was great too.
When I lived there, I had a '69 Alfa Spider which was great on some of those roads. Heck it was really fun getting on Freeways in the SoCal area with the banked curving on ramps; Third gear and drift the rear all the way around the curve, hit the lane and ZOOM you were gone. Never got caught doing it either. Loved that car, but when we moved across country, there was no way I could tow a trailer and the car, so it had to go
My Fiat spider is almost as much fun, I've got to get her back on the road after too long of a lay off (almost 10 years).
