Pinnacles National Park

We decided to go out of our way to visit Pinnacles National Park on our trip north through California. This park is exhausting to get to because, coming from the south, you have to take narrow roads that are 85 miles with a million slow twists and curves. In a car it is work but it is even more so with a RV. In summary, going from south (Coalinga) to north it is a pretty drive that becomes less enjoyable after you get tired of all of the slow curves.

Anyway, about the park. There are two sides to the park, we went to the east side. There is one road that goes in a few miles and dead ends. The attractions are hiking and camping and hoping to see California Condors. We did one hike to get a feel for the park and just saw one Condor circling a long way off but we were only there a couple of hours. It is a pretty park with typical mountain hiking. Nothing against the park but since we did not enjoy the roads getting to it we will not return to this one.
