Hallelujah Junction is a locale in Lassen County, California.[1] It is located 4 miles (6.4 km) east-southeast of Beckwourth Pass,[2] at an elevation of 5033 feet (1534 m).[1] It is located at the interchange with U.S. Route 395 and the eastern terminus of State Route 70 (formerly US 40 Alt.).
This place originated when Orville Stoy relocated there and established a homestead and gas station, and it enjoyed status in the prohibition era.[3] By 1940 there was a bar, restaurant and motel, and the “Hallelujah International Airport” on an abandoned stretch of Highway 70.[3] It met its demise when the State of California purchased Hallelujah Junction in 1973 and levelled it to construct the four-lane freeway.[3]
American composer John Adams, who owns a cabin nearby, wrote "Hallelujah Junction", a piece for two pianos, named after this location.[4]
