[edit] Actual auto route

There actually was a very early auto trail called the Ocean to Ocean Highway. A conference for the association occurred in Phoenix on October 20, 1911. It's headquarters was in Redlands, CA. This makes it older than the National Old Trails Road and the Lincoln Highway. The Yuma Bridge built in 1914 and opened in 1915 is still known as the Ocean-to-Ocean bridge. The O-to-O Association later adopted the NOTR as it's western route, but it originally followed the route of the Southern National Highway to Yuma, then went northwest to Los Angeles via Palm Springs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Parsa (talk • contribs) 17:29, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
