Travel Destinations From San Diego?

I’m looking to create a list of great places to visit within 5 hours driving distance of San Diego. Can be any kind of destination, including camping sites, so long as its fun. Within San Diego is also fair game. Bonus points for undiscovered or not well known locations.

I’ll kick things off with:

Julian Snow

Julian. Quite close to San Diego (~45 minutes from North County), you can enjoy the excellent apple pies (try Mom’s Bakery) and sometimes play in the snow.

    It might be stretching the 5-hour limit (I don’t remember off-hand), but Mt San Jacinto and/or the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway are worth a visit. It’s as close as we get to Alpine splendor around here.
