G10 East (Blossom Hill Road) in California

These are from December 1986 of Blossom Hill Road in East Los Gatos. After 85 opened there was a lot less traffic out here in 1994. I am not sure if this section has any G10 signs left at all. I am leaving these online permanently. Back then it was quite a drive to reach eastern San Jose from here.

This is just past the last photo. The big hill in the distance is Communications Hill. This 1986 era photo was taken before a small pass was cut on Communications Hill. 87 was built up there in 1988. I believe this is before Union Avenue.

An interchange with US101 at Ford Road opened around 1980. It linked Monterey Highway, US101, and Blossom Hill Road. Blossom Hill Road was open east of there by 1984.
