Additional Details:
Oroville to Quincy, or visa versa, is a new all year high speed route through the Sierras, costing $8,000,000.00. This 78 mile, average 0.8 percent grade, 30 ft. clear vision highway took nine years to build. It spans the Feather River fourteen times. Three tunnels are cut through solid rock and in places the road actually seems to cling to granite cliffs, a true engineering masterpiece!Its continuous scenic grandeur greatly emphasizes nature's wonders.
