hey everybody, just wondering about something. While looking on the internet for some beautiful canyons in the so cal area, i remember coming across a ONE WAY amazing canyon. i also remember reading that it was the only one in California. however, i dont remember wut it was called.:p Perhaps someone here knows the name of this road being that it is the only one way canyon in Cali. btw i dont know where it is haha only that it is in So Cal and that it had some very complex corners

Probably not what you are looking for this is one way, in a canyon, and in California.:D (don't go there, it's pretty boring with some open lots for sale..)

It would be more helpful if you told us what region of California you saw this road? I think there are roads in Sequoia(sp?) that are one way, I think it was called Kings Road...

Btw, nice drive in for me this morning on Mulholand canyon. 405 and 101 was completely choked up.:D

Hehe I grew up in that area, I remember driving thoes hills in my Escort during high school, not exactly zoom zoom, but fun none the less.

Also if you are in that area, take Sand Canyon road twards the valley!

I think the best so-cal road has to be Tuna canyon in Malibu. Its a one way road downhill. I broke a half shaft in my then one year old MR2 Spyder. Never again. But fun nonetheless.
