Hi,

Sounds like a great couple of weeks.

I don't know what the average snowfall for that area is, but my guess is that being along the coast that it is much less than the Canadian Rockies around Banff and Jasper.

We Californians are pretty protected from weather that the rest of the northern portion of the continent take for granted - even look forward to. The only snow you are likely to hit in any quantity is in the last bit, and maybe on I-5 in northern California/southern Oregon. But not to worry.

If you see snow on the ground, slow down and don't make any sudden turns. Snow coming down is nothing to freak out about either, unless it is a blizzard (very rare).

Have a great time, and don't forget the sunscreen (sunburns on snow can be vicious!)
