During the 2009 wildfire season the large fire known as the " Station Fire " burned the mountains through which Route 2 travels . The fire damaged the signs , guardrails , and lane striping , as well as leaving large boulders and other debris all over the road . As a result , the highway was closed by Caltrans until November 30 , 2009 . It was briefly re-opened until mud and rock slides in early 2010 forced a portion of the highway to be closed again from 2 miles east of the I-210 junction to 14 miles east of La Canada . It reopened on June 3 , 2011
