A Road Less Traveled

Kings Canyon National Park in California stands as one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to. It rivals Yosemite for sheer jaw-dropping beauty, is less crowded, and has something Yosemite doesn't - Giant Sequoias. The road that winds through the park is loads of fun to drive, especially in a convertible. It offers countless twists, turns, and heart pounding sheer drops into oblivion, with the only thing separating you from a straight vertical plummet being short pieces of granite (see below). The vistas offered along the road make for frequent stops and picture opportunities, one of which I present here. Stunningly beautiful, but not for the faint of heart. Just like a drop dead gorgeous woman....who knows it.
