[pct-l] Angeles Crest Highway Reopens

[Carl Siechert]

The money quote:

Danny Macias, an equipment operator for Caltrans on his way to work in East
L.A. from Palmdale, had not taken the road since August. After weaving
around large boulders that had tumbled onto the road and watching rocks
falling from the barren hillsides, Macias was shaking.

“I’m terrified,” he said. “I wouldn’t go up there. There’s rock slides
everywhere.”
