In 1858 the Santa Cruz Turnpike Company awarded a contract in the amount of $6000 to Charles Henry "Mountain Charlie" McKiernan and Hiram Scott for the construction of a road. The road from the Scott house, located in what is now Scotts Valley, to the summit was later known as the McKiernan Toll Road. It subsequently became part of Santa Cruz County road system on August 27, 1878 when the Santa Cruz Board of Supervisors issued a warrant for $600.00 to Charles McKiernan in consideration of said abandonment by him.
