Sierra Vista Scenic Byway
 
The Sierra Vista Scenic Byway is not for the faint of heart. Parts of the road are unpaved and are in poor condition.  A four wheel drive vehicle is not a necessity, but it does help. It is closed in winter and would be a difficult drive in wet weather.  There only two places that have any sort of facility for the traveler. The bathrooms are few and far between and are shown on the map. All that being said it is definitely worth the 100 mile 5 hour drive to see the massive granite domes and majestic peaks.  It would take many trips along the byway to explore all the trails and meadows.  We started our trip at Bass Lake and made the loop through North Fork and then back to Oakhurst.
