     From San Francisco and other points west of the Sierra Nevada, go to Interstate 580 East. Do not go south on 580, bear to the left and take Interstate 205. Be sure to follow the signs to reach Highway 99 north towards Sonora. You will exit onto Interstate 5 north for a very short distance as you will take the exit that says Highway 120 - Sonora. This takes you to Highway 99 and once you are on Highway 99 north, you will take the next exit which puts you back on Highway 120 east towards Sonora.
     Follow Highway 120 until you reach the center of Oakdale. At this light, you will turn left onto Highway 120/108 east. Continue until Highway 120 splits to the right (Yosemite Junction). Continue straight on Highway 108 until you reach Jamestown (6 miles from Yosemite Junction). Watch for Jamestown Harley-Davidson on the left. You will take a left on Rawhide Road at the gas station on the corner. Stay on Rawhide Road which journeys through an area once known as the town of Rawhide (one of the richest gold mines in Tuolumne County). You will reach Highway 49. Bear right onto Highway 49 and continue towards Sonora. Watch for Fraguero Road on the left. Turn here and continue until you reach 8773 Fraguero Road. You have reached Wy's Acres and Wy's Guide Adventures!
     If you missed the Rawhide Road left turn off Highway 108, don't panic. The next left is Jamestown-Shaw's Flat Road. Follow this to Highway 49 and turn left. Watch for Fraguero Road on the right and follow it to 8773 Fraguero Road. If you miss both of these, take the business district exit onto Highway 49 into Sonora. This is Stockton Road. It deadends on Washington Street where you will turn left. Follow Highway 49 to Fraguero Road on the right.

From Southern California, you will drive north on Interstate 5 over what is referred to as the Grapevine. After you cross the mountains, you will continue straight on Highway 99 (do not continue on Highway 5). You will drive north through Bakersfield and Fresno. Continue on until you reach Merced. Watch for the Highway 59 exit which is after the G Street exit. Turn right when you exit, cross the railroad tracks and take a left at this light. Take your next right onto Highway 59 (there's a sign there). This will save you at least ½ hour from continuing north to the Highway 120 exit. If you prefer this, follow the directions contained in the directions from the Bay Area. Follow Highway 59 until you reach Snelling. On the other side of Snelling, you will take a left on J-59 (there's a sign which says Sonora). Follow J-59 past Lake Don Pedro until you reach Highway 108/120. Take a right and continue until you reach Jamestown. Refer to the last of the Directions from the Bay Area and Points West to reach Wy's Guides Adventures and Wy's Acres Bed & Breakfast.

From Sacramento, go south on Highway 99 to Stockton. In Stockton you will take Highway 4 east for about 55 miles until you come to Highway 49 just north of Angels Camp. You will go south (righ) on Highway 49 through Angels Camp. Continue for about 16 miles (25 minutes) towards Columbia. Turn left onto Fraguero Road. Watch for 8773 Fraguero Road on the left and you have arrived!
If you are further south or arriving through Lodi, or other points in this area, you can travel to Stockton to reach Highway 4 or you can travel south on Highway 99 to Manteca and pick up Highway 120. Follow the Directions From the Bay Area and Points West once you reach Highway 120 which will take you through Oakdale.

     The trip from the east is the most spectacular and scenic of all the routes into Tuolumne County. You have two choices. . .Sonora Pass or Tioga Pass. You might want to take one coming and the other going for the maximum Sierra Nevada and Yosemite experience.
     U.S. Highway 395 follows the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada in two states, California and Nevada. If you are coming from below Mono Lake, you will travel north on Highway 395 and if you are north of Mono Lake, you will travel south.
     From the north, go south to Sonora Junction. Turn right onto Highway 108 and follow this over Sonora Pass, the second highest pass through the Sierra Nevada. You will pass through Strawberry, Pinecrest, Long Barn, Mi Wuk Village, Twain Harte, Standard, and into Sonora. Continue west on Highway 108 until you reach Mono Way. Take a right continue into downtown Sonora. Washington Street is the main street of Sonora and at Stockton Road, it also becomes Highway 49. Continue until you reach Fraguero Road on the right. At 8773 Fraguero Road, the welcome mat is out!
     If you're traveling north on Highway 395, you will pass through Lone Pine, Independence, and Bishop. In Lee Vining, Highway 120, a left turn, takes you up to 10,000 feet through Tioga Pass, the highest pass through the Sierra Nevada. There is a National Park fee for traveling this highway as it is the northern part of Yosemite National Park and some say the most beautiful. . .especially Tuolumne Meadows. You will follow this highway until you reach the end and then turn right (a left turn will take you into Yosemite Valley). Follow Highway 120 out of the National Park. You will pass through Buck Meadows, Big Oak Flat, and Groveland. When you reach the bottom of the steep grade outside Groveland (Moccasin), you will follow this past Don Pedro Lake to Jacksonville Road (your first right). You can continue on Highway 120/49 to Chinese Camp and turn right onto Highway 49 and then onto Highway 108. Follow the Bay Area Directions from this point on.
     It is shorter to take Jacksonville Road. Follow this road into Jamestown. In the center of town on Main Street, turn right and then left on Humbug Street which will take you across Highway 108 to Rawhide Road. If you miss Humbug Street, Main Street exits onto Highway 108. Go straight across to Jamestown-Shaw's Flat Road. Use the directions from the Bay Area and Points West directions once you are on Rawhide Road or Jamestown Shaw's Flat Road.
     You can also turn right on Highway 108 and take the Highway 49 and Business District exit (right) into Sonora and turn left on Washington Street (Stockton ends at Washington). Once on Washington Street/49, just follow it until you reach Fraguero Road (on the right)! We'll keep a light on fer ya!
