You’ve probably driven up the Grapevine in California several times without realizing this important piece of history sat hiding in plain sight. Fort Tejon State Historic Park is located just off the I-5 between the cities of Castaic to the South and Grapevine to the North and played an important part in the early days of California. • Once a strategic army installation and headquarters of the United States Regiment of Dragoons in the 1850s, Fort Tejon is now operated by the California State Park's Department and demonstrations are generally conducted on the first Saturday of every month. A Frontier Army Days demonstration at Fort Tejon State Historic Park is a unique way to step back in time and witness history come to life. Demonstrations can include 1850s Army Barracks Life, Blacksmith Shop, Artillery Drill, Open Hearth Cooking and much more! Fun Fact: Huell Howser paid a visit to Fort Tejon in 1999 for his California Gold series! • You can make it a full day of adventure by also checking out some cool hiking spots in the surrounding area, such as the Wind Wolves Preserve on the outskirts of Bakersfield. • Check out Fort Tejon's website at https://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=585 for more information and remember to Never Stop Exploring! • #ExploreAlways #FortTejon #HistoricPlaces #CivilWarHistory #ExploreCalifornia #Travel #NeverStopExploring #travelblogging #tourism #wanderluster #inspiredtravels #exploringtheglobe #getaway #adventuretime #adventureseeker • 🌍✈️⛰🗽🚍🏝🌍✈️ • Explore Always is produced by Frager Productions. • SUBSCRIBE to get the latest videos: http://bit.ly/2GYwLvB • Connect with Explore Always online: • Follow on FACEBOOK: https://bit.ly/3i646Vg
