PARKFIELD AREA, CALIFORNIA, DIRECTIONS
	Parkfield, actually in the southern part of Monterey County, is off the beaten    in a particularly rural area where the USGS maintains earthquake experiments. It is normally serviced by north San Luis Obispo County communities. The most improved road leads north from Cholame from CA46 (17 miles),    21 miles from Shandon, but 43 miles from Paso Robles' commercial services. Most common are the roads, however, from San Miguel; River road to    Cross Canyons Rd., onto Indian Valley Rd., onto Vineyard Canyon Rd.,    onto Parkfield Coalinga Rd.; (24 miles) and 35 miles from Paso Robles. Coalinga can be reached over a partially unimproved Parkfield Coalinga Rd.;     the Parkfield Grade and CA198 (29 miles, in Fresno County). To get to the Monterey Courts, etc., requires a trip of about 135 miles.
