Forgot to add a must see/stop is the Mobil gas station at the end of the
Tioga Pass road in Lee Vining. You won't believe the food!

Also, I'd love it if you have suggestions for places to stop by along the
way. :-)
+Be sure to check road conditions through Yosemite over Tioga Pass to Lee
Vining - that road does normally close for the winter due to snow.
+In southern Utah be sure to visit Grand Staircase-Escalante National
Monument and Capitol Reef National Park
Also you might consider an all wheel drive SUV for some of the remote
locations.
Its a great part of the country, especially for photography, just don't tell
anyone about it, we want to keep it a secret

Subject: Roadtrip California
Today I passed 2000 PDML mails in my inbox, and realised I have to pull
myself seriously together to keep up.
To make short work of it all, my thoughts and condolances to Doug Brewer
on the loss of his beloved lens, and a big *yay* for the work Mark Roberts
and his crew has put down on the annual. Blurb tells me one is on its way
here.
I am in the process of planning a 3 weeks' roadtrip through Sierra Nevada
in October/November. We are two Norwegian Pentaxians travelling together.
The plans are not very firm yet, but we're coming through San Francisco.
We plan to go via Sonora to Yosemite, through the Sierra to Mono Lake, and
go South along hwy 395 and the into Death Valley. From there our plans are
still open. We have been recommended to go further East to Valley of Fire
and on to Zion, and then go East, around to the South side Grand Canyon
before turning back to California. Suddenly we found ourselves doing in
excess of 3000 kilometers in three weeks... Is that at all realistic? Your
thoughts would be much appreciated.
Also, I'd love it if you have suggestions for places to stop by along the
way. :-)
