CHP Officer Patrick Etchebarne says the vital route between Southern and Central California reopened shortly before noon Monday, with motorists being escorted over the Tejon Pass in groups of about 500 vehicles.
The pass was shut down about 12:30 p.m. Sunday as a cold storm dropped snow to very low elevations in the region and made travel treacherous.
