Believe it or not, I recognize the location of photo number 2. The mountain ridge is called Twin Peaks, take the trail from Three Points, hang a right after five miles, descend to the saddle, and make your way to the notch on the left side of the picture. The trail to the top isn't really maintained. It's probably not even a real route, just a somewhat worn path cross country hikers use. And before I forget, the road is California Route 2, also know as the Angeles Crest Highway, San Gabriel Mountains, Los Angeles County. Yes, this is L.A.
Written on the back of the first photo in the column, "We stopped here & put the chains on. Jan 31, 1932" The second, "Frank (Lois's B.F.), Lois, La Veta, Ernest & I enjoying our lunch. Jan 31, 1932" And the last, "Look out Lois from above. Jan 31, 1932"
If I don't make it back to the antique store with some more money, this is going to be the smallest collection I have, but it is part of greater lot of photos. Click on "new Californians" in the labels selection to see all of one other image.
