RouteXpert Review
Route, text and photos of MRA Goldmember André ter Schegget. All route points were checked and the route was equalized for Garmin and TT.
Route 02/15 of a three-week round trip through the west of America. From Solvang to Monterey / Pacific Grove.
Head west from the hotel to pick up the Pacific Coast Highway (HWY 1) heading north. Beyond RP 8 you can park left and visit the "The Elephant Seal Vista Point". A beach full of sea lions, you will not miss them easily because you can smell them from afar. (This is where the Garmin and the TT differ from each other, but you can not miss it.)
At route point 9 you will find McWay Falls, a waterfall that ends up in the sea. At RP 10 you drive over Bixby Creek Bridge. Just after the bridge there is a nice viewpoint. Again, the Garmin route and that of the TT differs somewhat. There is only one way, so no problem there. Finally to the overnight address in Pacific Grove.
