Representatives from the Ridge Route Preservation Organization, including myself, recently met with a few people from the Angeles National Forest regarding the Ridge Route. A summary of the meeting can be found on the ridgeroute.org site – http://www.ridgeroute.org/june-2019-update/ .

Geologic Report
In January, I was asked to do some research regarding the potential for a landslide on the Ridge Route near Templin Highway. I thought it would be a good opportunity to get some practice writing a geologic report. While I’m not a professional geologist, I still find it a lot of fun to do . I added a copy of the report on this site, available for download. I would love to hear feedback from any other geologists out there.

This is a section of abandoned roadway, paved in 1919, within Grapevine Canyon, near PM 8.0 on the east side of the canyon. This section was bypassed in 1933 by a newer alignment of US 99.
US 6 on US 6
In mid-October, I went on a road trip, part of which covered a section of US 6. It was the first time I had taken US 6 on a motorcycle, let alone my US 6 plated one. I felt it was a good opportunity to take a photo.
