This is a very nice drive. Many overlooks and vistas. The highway is along the edge "Rim" of the mountain. Our street hits this highway about 3 minutes up the street. Turn left and take about a 30 minute scenic drive to the other side of the mountain. Do not pass Crestline. Maybe visit the small mountain town of Crestline and Lake Gregory and return.
