Mobil Travel Guide through a unique partnership with the National Scenic Byways Program have come together to offer auto travelers an exciting and historically significant American experience.
Under the National Scenic Byways Program, the U.S. Secretary of Transportation recognizes certain roads as National Scenic Byways or All-American Roads based on their archaeological, cultural, historic, natural, recreational, and scenic qualities. There are 95 such designated byways in 39 States. America's Byways are a distinctive collection of American roads, their stories and treasured places. They are roads to the heart and soul of America.
Follow any of the West Coast National Scenic Byways and experience some of the most diverse scenery America has to offer. Included among the many byways the West Coast has to offer is the Rogue-Umpqua Scenic Byway. More commonly known as the "highway of waterfalls", the Rogue-Umpqua Scenic Byway ascends deep into the Cascades. About 18 miles east of Roseburg the North Umpqua meets head-on with the Little River at Colliding Rivers, one of the few places in the world where this phenomenon occurs. Those who come rarely forget the feelings they had while here deep in Oregon country.
This book covers the West Coast starting in Alaska and ending in sunny Southern California. Encapsulating the best, and at times, most well hidden secrets of our great American past.
Along with information about each byway, including an overview, quick facts such as length and typical drive times, and descriptions of the byway's intrinsic qualities, the book offers Mobil Travel Guide rated and recommended lodgings and restaurants that can be found along or near each byway, along with things to see and do on the way.
