We’ve made it to California’s Sierra Nevada Mountains! For the next two months we will be exploring all around this mountain range. And to kick things off we went on a road trip on Highway 395, checking out delicious local eats, visiting the world’s oldest trees, admiring the epic mountain views, and exploring the iconic Alabama Hills, the filming location of many movies over the years.

📅 This video was filmed in mid May 2024
