On Devil's Slide, looking north. At this point and southwards, Hwy 1 was build on the abandoned right-of-way of the Ocean Shore Railway. Going north, the routes diverge. You can see the old highway easily enough, slowing sloping uphill from this point. You can vaguely see the remains of a ledge below it, sloping slowly downwards, which was the railway. In the distance you can see traces of it going out towards the tip of Pedro Point. The railway went through a tunnel right there, but it was dynamited by the authorities during prohibition because it was a handy place for bootleggers to stash booze smuggled ashore from ships.
