OK folks the rumors are true... The Angeles Crest Hwy above LaCanada has finally reopened. It is a beautiful thing, with a fresh roadway surface, new signs, markings, guard rails and a few new features. These include several new small bridge sections, concrete raised embankments on the shoulder and all new, widened and fully paved pull outs and scenic vista points. The area of the two big wash outs has some very impressive slope / grade work and fresh new (huge) run off channels and basins. I will go back with more time and take a closer look at these areas, as the work is amazing. :drool
Very Cool!! One of the best canyon roads ever. Just got back from running Angeles Crest. WOW!!! Newly paved from the bottom all the way to Angeles Forest Highway. Fast MINI, perfect road surface, sunny day, not much traffic - priceless!!
