This is a quote from the Los Angeles Times 9/4: "More than 40 miles of the Angeles Crest Highway from La Canada Flintridge to Islip Saddle have been closed indefinitely because of the Station Fire, which has burned off road stripping and destroyed guard rails and signage along the scenic route, Caltrans officials said. Judy Gish, a Caltrans spokeswoman, said the highway’s pavement remains largely intact, though further damage to the 66-mile road is possible as the fire continues. She said it was too soon to estimate the cost to repair the highway or when it could be reopened." Sad news for everyone. I do believe Newcomb's is still standing. Title: Re: Is ACH closed?

Thanks erkishhorde, I'm glad someone appreciated the appendage that greatly reduces drag, turbulence and buffering, providing me with unprecedented aerodyamic performance. Title: Re: Is ACH closed?

Anyone have any info on wether ACH is open yet? Title: Re: Is ACH closed? Post by: erkishhorde on September 29, 2009, 07:23:40 PM I've heard murmurings that you can get to Newcombs but no further. Not sure if they're true though.
