Mil Potrero Highway

[Max Rockatansky]

Mil Potrero Highway is an approximately 8.2-mile component of Kern County Mountain Road 364 located along the San Andreas Fault Rift Zone in the San Emigdio Mountains.  This corridor begins at the junction of Cuddy Valley Road/Mount Pinos Highway and extends westward through the community of Pine Mountain Club to the junction of Cerro Noroeste Road/Hudson Ranch Road at Apache Saddle.

Mil Potrero Highway from Cuddy Valley to San Emigdio Canyon follows the general corridor of El Camino Viejo.  El Camino Viejo was in common use by 1780 and was the original inland Spanish highway to Los Angeles.  The Tenneco corporation would develop Mil Potrero Highway in the early 1970s to facilitate access to the then new resort community of Pine Mountain Club.
