At a Glance
Ho-hum, just another day of drudgery at the Hwy 36 office. And this continuation of the renowned NorCal east-wester starts out from the three-DH junction possibly as an even better ride than the superlative DH6 from Carlotta, as hard as that is to believe. It’s exceedingly rare to find the intense, lengthy barrage of Twistiness that’s thrown at you right off the top, especially when it’s combined with excellent Pavement. Though the road-hugging forest and rugged close-to-the-road terrain initially impair Engineering, both T&E mellow out the nearer you get to Red Bluff in the Central Valley. But Remoteness stays consistently – and surprisingly – good; there’s as yet little development even close to Blufftown. As for Scenery, thickly forested mountains eventually give way to more moderately treed and sage-covered foothills before a combination of open flat and partly treed, rollicking n' rolling countryside takes you home. The magnificence of the upper reaches and the wide variety of experience throughout helps keep Character within striking distance of its Hwy 36 colleague. It’s just too bad these particular workdays aren't pensionable time.
