You will pop onto the 10 off the 15 at San Bernardino. Keep going east and you're homefree! You will thus avoid the ugliness of the 10 through Pomona and Claremont. Basically from the 5 you will go east well north of the 10 and West LA and Downtown. It is much quicker and easier. It is unreal nasty traffic on the 10 through those parts.
Kevin, thanks for that info. That's great. I drove down to LA on Friday, hit traffic just south of Magic Mountain because of the fire. They were actually using 5 as the fire barrier and flames were burning on the side of the mountain with lots of firemen and helicopters (around 2pm). A site to see! Then it got really bad near Sunset Blvd, about 5 miles north of 10. So if we can avoid all of that, it will be that much better. Thanks.
