Tioga Pass. Tioga Pass is out of this world and the best drive I have ever taken. If you do nothing else in your life you have to drive Tioga Pass in a convertible. Huge forests, massive granite pavements, beautiful snow capped mountains, vast meadows, crystal clear streams, gorgeous lakes and a myriad of animal and plant life with a Sierra Nevada back drop - all in one peaceful two hour drive!
