On the road to Tortilla Flat



To get to Tortilla Flat involves a lot of winding and curving along a road that at times you wonder if you would fit with a car passing by. Then there are the one lane bridges that you have to take turns using, let's just say not everyone knows how to play fair. It is a popular road and heavily traveled especially on holiday weekends. The road leads to Canyon Lake and if you stay on past Tortilla Flat goes to Roosevelt Lake. Motorcyclists love to travel in this area and Tortilla Flat is a popular resting place along the road. We have gone out here one other time and never past Tortilla Flat. Basically this is a two building town. They have a shop that sells souvenirs and ice cream and then there is the cafe/saloon. The bar stools are actual saddles. It is all very old and rustic, a fun place to visit but not too many people live here. I believe the population is 6. The journey to Tortilla Flat is a very scenic one, traveling through National Forest Property and past Canyon Lake. It was a beautiful day and nice to be out in the fresh air and sunshine.
