Left coast advice
#2
I would budget a 6-7 hour leisurly driving day to get from San Francisco up to the Eureka/Arcata area, with a detour through the Avenue of the Giants. You can do the drive in 5 1/2 or so pushing hard, and not taking the scenic detour...
I made it in just over 5 hours once, but that was extraordinarily good traffic conditions.. not likely repeated.

Beautiful area.. (I'm biased.. I live here...).

I'm a bit hazy on the drive from here, up to Portland and through to Seattle... I haven't driven that way in many years (and then, I was a passenger).

The drive DOES get slower up 101 north of here (Eureka area).

Hope this helps!
