Hmmm, interesting this list includes only the west side of the valley with no mention of the many backroads through the sierra foothills andplaces like Hite’s Cove trail. Also, no mention of Hunter Liggett and the backroads in the area?

I can understand considering Hite Cove and the foothills as different area, but Hunter Liggett seems a definite omission. I am guessing it mainly reflects the area of the author.
