Some of the smaller ones had light debris (branches, trees, needles, cones) but very very few potholes and certainly no rattling of kidneys into my throat.

I like meeting in Placerville, seems to be a good start point. Think it takes me an hour and a half to get there, so 8 at the earliest. The Shell station there at the junction of 49 and 50?

If that works, I might change a bit, take us off of 50, go up Groveland Rd to Wentworth Springs, then to Ice House and come back into 50 to continue on up to Echo.
Having a hard time figuring this out... could you map it?
