About This Road
Another lovely road up and down a mountain to serve an observatory (Mount Hamilton Road in San Jose is much better, but similar). Very technical curves with a decent road surface on the South Grade road, a nice cruise along the ridge, and then some fun curves on the way down.
One of my favorite drives in the area. It works well if you're heading to or from Julian in search of pie.
