The section of California State Route 1 between Leggett and Fort Bragg feels like a different world compared to the rest of California. It’s often called one of the most technical paved roads in the state — especially the inland portion before you actually reach the coastline. You get: * Relentless tight switchbacks * Dense redwood canopy that blocks the sky * Minimal traffic (especially early mornings) * Long stretches without services It’s wild that this exists in the same state as Los Angeles
