Historical Highways
of
Central and Southern California

[US 6 and US 99 OH Sign]


Watch for updates coming! I'm slowly working to expanding the site.


My adopted section of highway : Interstate 5 in Kern County between Postmiles 6.00 and 8.00 - Both directions. Please, join me in adopting your own section of highway. You drive it all the time, why not help to make it cleaner too.


My highway goal for the year 1999 was to have completed every State highway in California. On December 12, 1999 at 9:37am, I completed the last route I needed - SR-115 at the junction with SR-111 in Calipatria. Eventually, I'll post what routes I found to be the most scenic, most boring, and other various categories.

On September 25, 1997, the Ridge Route from just north of Templin Highway to Sandberg, within the Angeles National Forest, was granted historic status on the National Register of Historic Places. This is a great victory for Ridge Route historians and enthusiasts.
