Talk:Tejon Pass

Elevation of the Pass?

There seems to be some confusion about the elevation of Tejon Pass. This article has its elevation as 4,183 ft. A quick peek at Google Earth suggests that the elevation at road level is 4,160 ft. The official federal GNIS system also lists Tejon Pass at 4,160 ft. Anyone be able to help out here? NorCalHistory (talk) 17:51, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

The change has been made to 4,160 feet. Yours, GeorgeLouis (talk) 04:53, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Nevertheless, the sources DO differ, so two figures are now being used. I think the discrepancy might stem from the translation from meters to feet, but who is to say without going out to measure it? GeorgeLouis (talk) 07:32, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Something is wrong with this sentence . . .

At the same time the first grant of Rancho Los Alamos y Agua Caliente in 1843, included the pass which was called Portezuela de Castac (Castac Pass). Can it be corrected or made more understandable. Maybe with or without the comma, or by some rewording? Thank you! GeorgeLouis (talk) 17:22, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

No chains

I removed the addition because it is out of date. Comment here if you like. GeorgeLouis (talk) 05:46, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Yes, that was probably not a wise move on my part to continue to cite something from 2008. I should have double-checked the CalTrans website, and it does currently list the Tejon Pass as one of the areas where chains may be required. Thanks. Zzyzx11 (talk) 06:28, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Request Cross-Section Drawing

This article needs a cross-section drawing similar to one that I found in an LA Times article, but need to add miles along the X-axis. • Sbmeirow • Talk • 04:04, 5 April 2020 (UTC) https://web.archive.org/web/20200405035532/https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/6a5fdf9/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1564x1051+0+0/resize/840x564!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F39%2F8c%2F40f0d27f4f0798c95c1f78b0c6b5%2Fla-me-wednesday-storm-grapevine-03252020-artboard-4.jpg
