Remarks & Notes

Car or Train? That is the question. Many people flock to the Sierras by driving up Interstate 80, but what better way to relax and see the beautiful mountains than by taking Amtrak's California Zephyr. Here you see the train right along Interstate 80 at Emigrant Gap with the awesome Bear River Valley right beside it.
