Hello Again,
So the plan is to visit Kings Canyon and Sequoia NPs. #1 issue is that I'll be coming from the west, and entrances to these areas are from the EAST, over the Sierras.
What is the lowest elevation, easiest tow route going from Reno/Carson City, NV area west over the mountains to Fresno, CA or Visalia, CA. ? The later two cities are the jumping off points into the parks.
Can I skip going all the way into Sacramento area and head south on 41/49? Can I even get over the Sierras and avoid 10% grades? I have no experience of roads in this area of CA.
Three campgrounds in NPs open for reservations today!!! So any help is much appreciated.
Linda
