From BoardGameGeek
Cruise along California's State Route 1 on the Big Sur Coast Highway to check out the views and landmarks along the most scenic driving route in the world - or rather, invite others to cruise on the highway that you build over the course of play. In Big Sur, players draft cards to use them either as resources to build new road sections or as the road sections themselves. Your linear path of cards will score for connecting terrain types and meeting other conditions. You can also add notable landmarks to your highway for other unique scoring conditions; these landmarks are based on actual scenic lookouts and locations on Big Sur.
