Dedicated to the preservation of California's Main Street – former US Highway 99
Where on 99? #1
Every couple weeks we will be posting a series called “Where on 99?” where we post a photo from somewhere along US 99 in California. Sometimes there will be hints but nothing that will give it away. Photos will range from new to old and will cover all of old 99.
Our first image was taken in 2007 and shows a section of highway that still looks the same today. Bonus points for what year the concrete was poured.
I am the founder of the Historic Highway 99 Association of California. I am also the author and administrator of the "Southern California Regional Rocks and Roads" website at https://socalregion.com, since 1995. I have been studying the geology and highway history throughout southern California for most of my life. I am also the President of the Ridge Route Preservation Organization.

Without consulting Google maps, my first thought would place the photo in Tehama County, South of Red Bluff.

It looks similar but isn’t it.
