This is a longer, but much prettier route (from Google maps). Rt 395 south of Reno is one of the most interesting drives you can do if you like geology and spectacular scenery:
Take French Camp Rd and Pine Creek Rd to CA-96 W in Hoopa
54 min (19.4 mi)
Follow CA-299 E to CA-44 E in Shasta County
3 h 26 min (172 mi)
Turn right to stay on CA-44 E (signs for Susanville/Reno)
45 min (45.8 mi)
Take US-395 S to CA-120 W in Tuolumne County
4 h 19 min (242 mi)
