This is camera 5 of 8 on the The Grapevine strip, in the middle third of the corridor in driving order. The camera sits at about 2,181 feet, on I-5 at I-5 at the truck escape ramp, shoulder camera, near Lebec, in Kern County. Its frame is the official Caltrans CCTV still for this point on the road, and it refreshes with the state's own feed.

Mid corridor frames carry the transition. This is where valley weather gives up and mountain weather takes over in a storm, and where wind events first show as debris and leaning trucks. If the frames below this one and the frames above it disagree, the change is happening right about here.

Use this page as one instrument, not the whole panel. Its neighbors in the strip are linked below, two back and two ahead, so you can walk the road in stills before you drive it. The live corridor verdict at the top of this page remains the authority: it folds this camera's stretch of road together with the chain control checkpoints, the closure feed, and the message signs into one answer.
