Thanks for any replies This time of the year you will have to go south to Highway 58 to Bakersfield and 99 north. Probably close to 8 hours. Don in Tracy, Calif. |

Why do you call this "the round about way"? I think it's slightly faster than Hwy 178, even in summer. |

Thanks for any replies This time of the year you will have to go south to Highway 58 to Bakersfield and 99 north. Probably close to 8 hours. This is the fastest way any time of year. It avoids the 8000 foot passes and narrow winding route of Hwy 179, and it's certainly no longer timewise. Seven or eight hours is about the fastest you're going to make it from Death Valley to Sequoia unless you can fly. |

Thanks for any replies The 8 hour trip is the SHORT route via the Kern River and Trona If you are travelling in summer the alternative is to go over the Tioga pass and drive down the Owens valley ebtering DV via Panaminst Springs. Its a lovely drive but its going to take at least 12 hours without stops for sightseeing Keith ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
