CALIFORNIA'S GOLDEN 15
WHAT ARE YOUR CALIFORNIA FAVORITES?
You don't agree with our list of California golden spots?
Create your own list latimes.com/favorites, rate your own California travel quotient latimes.com/scoreboard.
Of course you have to count. Add together the Golden 15 destinations, the 15 California-for-beginners destinations and the 15 web-only honorably mentioned destinations, and you get a total of 45 possible quintessential California places.
If you have visited:
15 or fewer: You need to get out more. Those Huell Howser episodes on public television are no substitute for the real thing.
16-24: You're on your way, but are you wearing blinders? Odds are, you're either a beach person indifferent to the high-altitude territory east of Interstate 5 or a mountain person indifferent to the low-attitude territory west of Interstate 5.
25-32: Congratulations. You've been around. In fact, you've probably flirted with that classic California daydream: snow and ocean in a single day. (Have you considered the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, followed by a westward sprint on Interstate 10?)
33-45: We bow to you. Now, rest up at home for a while and leave some parking places for the rest of us.
