Understand
The Grapevine is a route that leads through Grapevine Canyon, descending at a six percent grade from the summit of Tejon Pass to the valley below. It has been a strategic travel corridor since the days of wagon roads, necessitating the construction of Fort Tejon to guard it. The original steep and winding route was famous for its accidents until it was widened and straightened during 1933-34.
