Lincoln HWY
Anyone do a road trip following the Lincoln hwy? I know route 66 is the (mother road) but the Lincoln hwy is older.

If you make it out to California, the Lincoln runs right along Donner Lake west of Truckee. Then follow it over Donner Summit on the old highway. The summit portion is 2.5 miles of two lane, and will make you really appreciate interstate hwys.--This used to be one of the major routes east out of Cali and has volumes of history about it. At the summit, there are railroad tunnels, snow sheds, hand built walls, wagon train trails, and more! Just the summit is good for a days exploring.
I enjoyed many hours up there, and you might also. Summer only!!! Winter has 20 to 35 feet of snow.
