Summit looking eastward

Original summit crossing and U curve remnant. US 40 cut and curve (1940's) just beyond brush line at left.

Fire tower is a long-time landmark, it was manned during fire seasons until a few years ago.

Traveling the 40's alignment was bad enough in the 60's and 70's, standing on this abandoned portion gives a little perspective to the progress of travel...
