LOS ANGELES — I've been meandering around California for decades, which is how I came up with the 101 Best California Experiences, a.k.a. the California 101. But it's a big state, there's plenty of ground I haven't covered, and 2023 feels like a year to get out there.
Of course, I'll be alert for new places too. But there are so many long-standing options for exploring, eating and sleeping that demand attention. Here are 18 adventures I'm hoping to cross off my list in the year ahead. You'll find a lot of coastline here, several campgrounds and a trio of museums that debuted in 2022.
1. Hike to the West Point Inn, Mt. Tamalpais State Park
