Hwy. 108 is the High Sierra!! Granite cliffs line the curves as the Sonora Pass climbs above 9000' elevation. This is usually the first Sierra Pass to close due to snow & the last to open in the late Spring, so the scenic driving window of opportunity is narrower than most. The upper elevation campgrounds are prime for fishing & the wilderness areas abound. A true backpackers haven.
