webcam focused on Tejon Pass in Lebec, California


The Tejon Pass is at 4,144 feet and is often snowed in and closed for short periods during cold winter days. It is wise to check the weather on the Grapevine before setting out to cross through this pass. This Tejon Pass webcam shows still shots

The image below shows how the pass looked in December 2019 when I headed home from L.A. to the San Francisco Bay Area. Having seen this image showing that it was closed due to snow, I changed our route from Highway 5 to Highway 101 before we left, and that turned out to be a miserable trip, too. I later heard there was no good way to do that trip that day except by airplane.

webcam focused on Angel Island in San Francisco, California


Visitors disembark at Ayala Cove on Angel Island, as did the first explorers who sailed into the bay.  View it on this webcam.  The island served as a detention center for immigrants from 1910 to 1940 (the island was once called the “Ellis Island of the West”), as a prisoner-of-war processing facility, and as a Nike missile defense base from 1955 to 1962.  WEBCAM DEACTIVATED
