Ah Patricks Point, Trinidad Head and Redwoods State Park were my favorite haund in the early 80s when I was a student at Humboldt State. I climbed Mt Shasta from the McCloud side and did the Fall River Mills century ride while staying at the McCloud Hotel. You hit most of my frequent places to go on your trip. I grew up in Socal hitting Josh and Anza Borego and the east side of the Sierras then I moved north in 78 and stayed. I love that fact that once you get out of LA and SF California is for the most part empty of people and beautiful if you look.
