The Central Valley

There was a time in the late '80's the there were not many places to stop as I made the drive north or south on The 5 between Stockton and Southern California. Harris Ranch was one of those places.

Just north of the exit is still the cattle ranch with 100's of cattle standing around in the dust and heat.

Further north is the Crows Landing Vista Point, a view area that I never stopped at before but always wanted to, just to get a view of the vast expanse of the valley.

The view here is towards the east, 180 degrees.
