Driving westbound on the 101, the road falls sharply as you approach the Las Virgenes exit (the accident site). Passing Las Virgenes it rises slowly as you continue westbound toward Westlake Village and Thousand Oaks. The Conejo Grade is a sharp drop taking you on to the coastal plain and Camarillo. They didn't make it that far.
