[QUOTE="SacramentoMike, post: 1375409, member: 11508"] Gregory's right about the heat in Northern California, but you can get a big jump on that problem by one simple expedient: STAY AWAY FROM REDDING! Sorry, Greg, but where we cool down pretty well at night, Redding often stays hotter than blazes all night long. My kid lives in Eureka, west of Redding on the north coast. It's in a time warp, but it sure is cool there--like all the time. Seldom hits 70. Pretty, though, and plenty of fun riding. Another area to think about is Northern AZ. It's all on a big plateau called the "Mogollon Rim.". My other kid went to NAU in Flagstaff, elevation 7,000'. Summers are mild, but in the winter, believe it or not, they get more snow than almost anywhere--5th snowiest city in the US, according to [URL="https://articles.niche.com/top-25-snowiest-cities-in-america/"]Google[/URL]. (My hometown, Syracuse, tops the list--I'm so proud.) But "Flag" is a pretty cool place, and hits a lot of your criteria. Definitely busts the image of Arizona, weather-wise. [/QUOTE]
