Conejo Grade, Mountain pass on Highway 101 in Ventura County, US
The Conejo Grade spans four miles along Highway 101, featuring a steep 7 percent incline that connects the Conejo Valley with Camarillo.
The California Highway Commission constructed the original Conejo Grade between 1914 and 1915, incorporating 49 curves throughout its path.
The Chumash people utilized the surrounding area as trading routes, establishing a network that connected inland communities with coastal settlements.
California Highway Patrol maintains inspection stations at both ends of the grade to monitor truck traffic and ensure vehicle safety.
Workers spent 272,000 hours excavating 800,000 cubic yards of rock during the 1937 realignment project that reduced curves by 75 percent.
