Yosemite Sierra Visitors Guide 2008 - (Page 28) The Sierra Vista National Scenic Byway The Sierra vista National Scenic Byway directs visitors along approximately 100 miles of roadway for some of the most majestic scenery to be found in California’s Sierra Nevada range. Designated on July 14, 1989 by the U.S. Forest Service, it was one of the first three Byways in California and among the first 50 in the United States. This outstanding scenic drive follows ridges and meadow edges along U.S. Forest Service-maintained roads connecting the communities of North Fork, Bass lake and Oakhurst. Start your Byway Adventure in the community of North Fork with a visit to the Sierra Mono Indian Museum. The fascinating heritage of the Mono people and their practical yet beautiful basketry will prepare you as you start your journey. Nearby, trails trace the historic trade route to the eastern Sierra used by past generations. 28 (top) Donn Lusby© - Lone ponderosa pine on Chiquito Ridge, Sierra N.F.
