Thumbs up Angeles Crest Highway Reopens

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.

Cool, let me know if some one is going to do cruise up the crest. It's right in my backyard and would love to finally take my car up there.

I was on it today (on my BMW R1200GS)and it's in great condition. There were also a lot of nice CHP out to celebrate the grand re-opening.
