The Old Stagecoach Road in Chatsworth was used from 1860 - 1890. There were several stagecoach lines but the route from San Francisco through the Santa Susana Pass, Between Simi Valley and Chatsworth, was the most steep and dangerous. This pass on the Chatsworth side was called "The Devils Slide", and for good reason. The road was carved out of the sandstone rock by hand (you can still see the pick marks), and holes were drilled so that steel pins were set so that block and tackle could ease the coaches down the grade. The slide, the old stage road and a portion of the Simi Hills are preserved in the Santa Susana State Historic Park
On March 17, 1939, A dedication ceremony commemorating the Stagecoach Trail at Devils Slide was held by The Native Daughters of the Golden West. The event was captured on movie film. Here is that film from 1939.
