Wind your way through the mighty Sierra Nevada Mountain Range while you embark on this 58-mile road trip. Marvel at the dramatic peaks, flowering meadows, and rock-filled valleys as you cross over Carson Pass and to the other side of the mountains. There are plenty of stops along the way where you can immerse yourself in nature. Go for a hike at Mount Zion State Park or Eldorado National Forest, or a kayak or boating trip at the glistening Caples Lake.
