Sometimes, there are a lot of posts to go through in the Calif section. How about a S Calif. Forum vs. an N Calif. Forum?

I think the majority of the posts in the California forum deal with the Sierra, which defy a north-south dichotomy. And as someone who travels a lot between north and south, I find it easier to go to a single forum rather than two. Also, it's interesting that I don't recognize any of the three people supporting this idea as anyone I've ever seen posting in the California forum. If you don't have much to contribute to a single forum, how much would you have to add to a bifurcated one?

Coming from the land of the Southwest (AZ, NM, NV, UT, TX) forum, I say... boo-hoo! Very Happy

I'm far from a regular contributor, but how about splitting the California Forum into Sierra and Non-Sierra?

While I think everyone agrees that it's a big state, you're bound to get some hair splitting. Sure questions about Shasta or San Gorgonio are going to be easy to distinguisy. But if I ask a question about the Bishop area, is that No Cal or So Cal? How about climbing at the Needles?

Nice in theory; a little trickier in practice.

Please leave California together. For those who want So Cal info there are San Gabriel, San Gorgonio, San Jacinto....forums out there.
