J1 East / Panoche Road (Proposed 180) in San Benito County

This is all from February 9, 2013. I had been on this road a lot but I never saw snow in the nearby mountains before. There was a little snow by the side of the road but I couldn't get a photo of it. I am surprised these galleries are getting visits because I already had "regular" galleries of this highway since the 1990s.  This runs from Highway 25 to ten miles east of Highway 25. Since these sets are unique I will leave them up permanently. The first two photos were taken a few miles south of Hollister on Highway 25 and the snow in the distance is in the Panoche Pass area that is crossed by J1.

This is a shot of wild mustard in bloom on 25. A bobcat ran across the road through here. I have seen a lot of snakes on the road out here before.

This is another shot of wild mustard on 25 closer to J1.  I had seen snakes out here but I never saw bobcats.

This is J1 just past 25. There was a bike race this day near here and that is why so many cars were parked at the side of the road.
