	Fremont Pass (California) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is not to be confused with Fremont Pass (Colorado).
		The steep pass was made easier for stagecoach traffic with a 30-foot deep cut made by Phineas Banning in 1854 as part of a road he built to provide service to Fort Tejon.
		Fremont Pass remains a main traffic route, as Interstate 5 (Golden State Freeway and California State Route 14 (Antelope Valley Freeway), as well as Sierra Highway, Foothill Boulevard, and San Fernando Road travel through the pass, and the Southern Pacific Railroad goes through the area via a tunnel.

	Mint Canyon Crash (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		NEWHALL - 3/24/39 - The big transcontinental planes of all four major companies used the local field for both arrivals and departures as the heavy blanket of mist made landing hazardous in the San Fernando Valley.
		The radio beacon on the Newhall Pass has been working for the past month, but only a few of the transports are so far equipped to make good use of its vertical beam.
		A good many Newhall youngsters have gotten a big kick out of the presence of the planes, as the pilots are on a more informal footing here than at the big terminals.

	Challenge
		This cut was also referred to as "The Narrows." In 1904, to further lessen the grade, men with picks and shovels once more laboriously deepened the cut and the roadbed was graded and oiled.
		The first automobile went over the pass in 1902 Beale's Cut was the only way over the pass until the Los Angeles County Road Department constructed the 435-foot Newhall tunnel just west of Beale's Cut, opening in October, 1910.
		The road through the tunnel was only two lanes, and loaded trucks often scraped the sloping walls inside unless directly in the center of the tunnel.

	Ripley: The San Fernando (Newhall) Pass, Part 16.
		In 1854 it had been transferred by the citizens of the small pueblo from the Cuesta Vieja to the New Pass when the first cut was put through the rock on the high ridge of the hills.
		Even if the old Newhall Grade had conquered many automobiles of that day, while its reputation as a tough grade remained unchanged, the new cars coming in were improving.
		While he kept as close to the east side of the road as he could, he had a pack burro that persisted in walking leisurely up on the side we were coming down, and clear over to the side, next to the steep gully that skirted the road.

	California Historian
		The Tejon Route was considerably shorter than the Tehachapi Route but neither pass could be called direct, for both curved widely to the east to reach the heads of the canyons while the objective point was at most due south.
		The late Jerry Reynolds, historian of the area, informed me prior to his passing that Castaic School was located on the southeast corner of the Lake Hughes Road and the Ridge Route, approximately where a fire station is currently located.
		The Ridge Route passed directly in front of the hotel and continued toward Fort Tejon and Grapevine, the small community at the bottom of the grade.

		We think he contributed some time to digging a narrow slot through the mountain at Newhall Pass.
		It has always been a busy pass because it is an easy way to get through the San Gabriel Mountains.
		By 1939 the two lane tunnel became a bottleneck for increased traffic, so a very large cut was made right up through the top of the mountain.

	Old Town Newhall Gazette, March-April 2006.
		For those of you who complain about the commute from that valley to Santa Clarita every day, remember that it used to be a very long day's journey from the Mission San Fernando to the estáncia at Castaic Junction.
		The remaining ranches still had cattle — but oil was starting to take over as the major industry, along with mining and the railroad.
		That simple, little bar across the Newhall Pass couldn't keep them out — and some days, the commute from the San Fernando Valley seems to take as long as it did in 1821.

	Gilbert's upset of Hamilton falls short \| EastValleyTribune.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Newhall-Caballero scrambled to avoid the Hamilton pass rush on the play, like he'd been doing much of the game.
		And while he was mostly successful doing so throughout the contest — he finished the game 20-for-39 for 304 yards and three touchdowns — this time it caught up to him.
		Gilbert (3-4, 0-2) cut it to 22-18 on a 19-yard pass from Newhall-Caballero to David Sepulveda with 4:03 remaining, but missed the extra point that would have closed the gap to three.
