Road Trip to the Pacific Northwest
7/06/2025

   2nd stop today • Williams Loop, Quincy, CA   

► Leaving Truckee, CA, on our way to Mt. Lassen NP, we stopped at the Williams Loop, near the town of Quincy, CA on US-89. This is a train "loop" used to gain altitude in a short distance, keeping the grade to a minimum. This is similar to the Tehachapi Loop between Bakersfield, CA and Mojave, CA.

► Unfortunately, there were no trains today, BUT Geri and I did walk the entire loop, just for the fun of it!
