Nothing keeps you awake like driving through a forest on a two lane, 65mph, highway at night while trying not to make road kill out of all the deer on the road. I must have seen at least a dozen deer in a 100 mile stretch. Sorta scary but sorta fun at the same time. There are tons of campsites and populated areas throughout this area. Looks like a cool place to think about coming back to in the future to do some backpacking. Just made it into Susanville which is just east of Lassen National Forest. I'm still feeling good so I'm going to continue to Reno.
