1938-March-02 - Ventura Blvd (then US-101, also LRN 2-B) at "Boctox Grade Change," according to the printed caption. This picture was taken during the heavy storms that ravaged much of Southern California that year (DOH Archives photo).

This appears to be near the bottom of Conejo Grade, as one enters Camarillo. However, I could not find any reference to "Boctox Grade" on old Ventura County maps.

Beetox (Beet Oxnard) was a railroad spur for a sugar beet dump. It was close to Del Norte. This pic is taken between Del Norte and Central heading towards Camarillo. You can see Spanish Hills in the haze to the left.
