120 East in California

I only went as far east as Don Pedro Reservoir. so if you want to see Mono Lake, you're out of  luck.  Not that I didn't want to go as far east as Mono Lake or US 6, I just didn't have enough time.

120 seems almost like an Interstate as you enter the Sierra foothills.  Parts of it are divided.  Even some of the two lane road sections are 65 mph.  But then you pass Don Pedro Reservoir and it gets slow and tedious.  This highway roughly points along the same corridor as Interstate 70, but I don't think this highway could or would ever be turned into an interstate.  This set is from 10/17/1998, and this is in Stanislaus County.
