Vallejo seems pretty ghetto, though the rest stop in [[Vallejo]] is really good. It's full of Urban Sprawl.
[[HumboltHumboldt]] county is real good. They have a Hoopa Indian Reservation up there that is pretty good. They'll stop if you're walking on the side because they think you're one of them, and then once they stop they feel bad and give you a ride anyway. Lord Ellis peak took me about half an hour to get a ride to Redding.
Route 101, North from [[San Francisco]] and Route 1 South from the bay, towards [[Santa Cruz]], are great roads to hitch, arguably the easiest hitchhiking in the United States. Incredibly beautiful scenery too.
Also, if you are heading down (or up) the coast, try and get to [[Mendocino]]. It's the county in Cali that produces the most marijuana, and there is this awesome communal farm there. Half the rides you get will even offer you a toke or two! Golden Gate Transit will get you up to Santa Rosa from the Bay Area, which is halfway there.
Highway 20, in between Yuba City (off Hwy 99) and Williams (off I-5) in Northern California is very, very bad for hitch hiking. Took 6 hours to catch a ride!
