We’re like pilgrims! “Westward ho!” they said from their covered wagons. And now look. Here we are, basking in all this great State has to offer.

This is a little wave near my house. It's always the first place I check in the morning. From there I can usually base where to go. Most of the time I'll drive around and end up right back where I started. Photo: Andy Bowlin

It’s sort of funny. Although our office is in Los Angeles, none of us here in The Inertia office are actually from California. We’re an American heartland/East Coast/Canadian West Coast mishmash that all happen to like what California has to offer. We’re like pilgrims! “Westward ho!” they said from their covered wagons. And now look. Here we are, basking in all this great state has to offer. And although the covered wagons have turned into more cars than should be on earth (at least here in LA), man oh man, are there some good waves. Here are 50 images submitted by our talented contributors that caught our eye.
