Fantastic picture!! What a job that must have been to create that road. I wonder how many years it took??

This photo was found while my Cousin Paula was going through pictures from our old ranch in Marina near where the Library is now. Our family did have a history of mining, blasting and road construction but there is no notation on the picture. That Pozar side of the family did move into the area in the 1930s.

I can’t figure this one out (as to where it was taken). The road is really low to the ocean and there are land masses up and to the left.
I wanted to think this was somewhere south of Limekiln SP looking north, but from looking at Google Street View, the distant landmass (which would be Lucia if I was right) is the wrong shape.
I’m stumped.

Both Kenny Wright and I agree that this is between Grey Slip and Alder Creek, so given the expertise of these two old farts. I think we are correct.

My dear Dad was a ‘dozer operator around that time–Ojai for sure, but I don’t know where else. No wonder there are slope failures. I don’t know how they compacted and handled subsurface water accumulation in those days. Were any of the engineers from Georgia Tech? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnIH51niqCY
