Description
This is an old jail at Fort Tejon near Lebec, California.
The heavy fog in the mountains made for the perfect
setting on the day that I visited.
***************************************
Fort Tejon in California is a former United States
Army outpost which was intermittently active from
June 24, 1854, until September 11, 1864. It is
located in the Grapevine Canyon between the
San Emigdio Mountains and Tehachapi Mountains.
It is in the area of Tejon Pass along Interstate 5, the
main route through the mountain ranges separating
the Central Valley from the Los Angeles Basin and
Southern California. The fort's location protected the an Joaquin Valley from the south and west.
