Among many picturesque sections of I-80 are the crossing of San Francisco Bay over the
San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge (toll paid westbound only), the traverse above Donner Pass and Donner Lake (near Lake Tahoe) in California, and its run along the Truckee River both west and east of Reno, Nevada. Interstate 80 crosses the southern end of Great Salt Lake west of Salt Lake City, Utah and the spectacular Rocky Mountains west of Denver, Colorado.
