The October, 1963, issue of Sunset magazine has an article with two photos and a diagram concerning the Anderson Grade Road in Siskiyou County, California. This is the road which climbs along the ridge to the east of the Shasta River Canyon between Hornbrook and Yrcka. The title of the article is "For Back Road Collectors." It starts off like this: "In our rush to give the automobile wider and straighter high ways, we have bypassed many picturesque old roads and closed them forever. One of the rare survivors is a road called simply the Anderson Grade, along the Klamath River in Northern Cali fornia." Then the article goes on to relate how the road has re mained pretty much the same for a century, and it tells the reader how to find the road and what to watch for while driving on it. Well, the editors of Sunset were almost too late in getting this article in print. For, from all present indications, the days of the Anderson Grade are numbered. It has been recommended by the California State Highway Engineer as the best route for the Interstate 5 Freeway between Yreka and Hornbrook. The Cali fornia Highway Commission hasn't officially adopted this as the route as yet, but is expected to do so this month.
