Corral Hollow Pass, originally Portezuela de Buenos Ayres (Pass of Good Winds) is a mountain pass in the Diablo Range southeast of Livermore, in Alameda County, California. This pass, at an elevation of 1600 ft, was the point where El Camino Viejo crested the range, leaving the Arroyo Seco watershed in the southeastern part of the Livermore Valley and dropping down a deep canyon into Corral Hollow near the former mining town of Tesla. The road then continued eastward along Corral Hollow Creek into the San Joaquin Valley. Today County Hwy J2 (Tesla Road/Corral Hollow Road) follows this route. The name Portezuela de Buenos Ayres appears on the Diseño del Rancho Las Positas.〔( Diseño del Rancho Las Positas, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-6000 )〕 Portezuela means "small door" in Spanish and in Mexico can mean "a pass between hills".〔(portezuela: Velazquez Spanish and English Dictionary, Velazquez Press, 2007 )〕 By 1873, the name of the pass had changed and appeared on a California State Geological Survey map as Corral Hollow Pass.〔State Geological Survey Of California. J.D. Whitney, State Geologist. Map Of The Region Adjacent To The Bay Of San Francisco. 1873. The Coast, Rancho, Township and Section Lines from Materials furnished by the U.S. Coast Survey and the U.S. Surveyor General's Office, the Topography chiefly from Original Surveys by C.F. Hoffman ... Julius Bien, Lith., 1873.〕 ==References==
