Default 2500 mile road trip pics

I was inspired by thridgen's post to finally throw a few pictures of my recent trip on here.
Went from Northwest WA to central CA to visit family. Two travel days going down and just one long day headed home to get back to my girlfriend--I won't lie--that was the motivation.
Rode 750 miles the first day, 450 the second, did a few day trips and then the big 1060 mile, one-day ride home...total riding distance of about 2500 miles in 9 days.
Highlights:

Crescent City, CA


Kings Canyon National Park @ Grant Grove (Central CA Sierra Nevadas):


Cedar Grove (In the bottom of Kings Canyon):




Back out of the canyon--About 100 miles round-trip of nothing but Canyon Highway with very little traffic.

awesome pictures. I dream of the day that I am able to do that kind of trip, although, I think it is going to be on a touring bike.

And the iron *** award goes to.....(opens envelope)........jj. Wow 1060 in a day! Incredible. My longest single ride was just over 5hrs. and my *** was sore. I can't imagine. The girlfriend was your motivation huh. Your a lucky man. These days all I get after a long ride is a "Where the hell have you been" hahahaha j/k. Nice pics and congrats on a good road trip.
