Cool Features

SR 288 is designated the Desert Tall Pines Scenic Road.

According to the 1975 State Highway System log, SR 288 was intended to go all the way up to SR 260, but for some reason the state highway designation was not extended, despite the scenic road designation continuing up the existing National Forest route to SR 260.
