Up and over the Grapevine, off to the San Joaquin Valley to pick - TopicsExpress



          

Up and over the Grapevine, off to the San Joaquin Valley to pick up carrots, citrus, grapes, peaches, plums and some green leafy stuff for people in eastern Wisconsin. The Grapevine is the stretch of I-5 that crosses over Tejon Pass from the LA basin to Californias central valley. When going north, there are only three routes out of town, I-5, I-15 or US 101. I-5 is the most direct route to Bakersfield and north but it is a hard pull up to the top then a long downgrade as it drops you into the salad bowl of California. This stretch includes two escape ramps for trucks that overheat the brakes on the downside.
