You can drive to 8 national parks and monuments in half a day from SF.
- Retric 10y ago1/2 day is 4-5 hours. Try and list 8 parks.
- pwarner 10y ago7, but redwood national park is just too far. All without traffic of course. Kings Canyon Sequoia Yosemite Lassen Volcanic Pinnacles Muir Woods Point Reyes
- Retric 10y agoEven ignoring traffic, you are counting the same park multiple times. Kings Canyon, Sequoia, Yosemite, Lassen Volcanic, Pinnacles is not bad but it's not 8. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:NationalParks.forwiki.pdf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:NationalParks.forwiki.pdf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_national_parks_of_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_national_parks_of_the_... But, Muir Woods is part of Golden Gate National Recreation Area and Point Reyes are not separate parks.
- pwarner 10y agoTwo more national monuments I did not know about. Not parks. Was fun to see what's near by. http://www.blm.gov/ca/st/en/prog/nlcs/California_Coastal_NM.html http://www.blm.gov/ca/st/en/prog/nlcs/California_Coastal_NM.... http://www.fs.fed.us/visit/berryessa-snow-mountain-national-monument http://www.fs.fed.us/visit/berryessa-snow-mountain-national-...
- dekhn 10y agoDon't forget Henry Coe State Park.
- LoSboccacc 10y agoI live in northern Italy, half a day trip include most of the peninsula and southern France. Sure job opportunityes are few, especially of the interesting kind, and pay is awful, but overall it's very hard to beat. I don't really get the point of people pretending it's for the entartainment, especially if whatever you do starts with a three hours drove to get out of the urban area. That doesn't really sound a high quality lifestyle, but to each their own.
- eru 10y ago> to get out of the urban area. To get out of the suburban sprawl..
