Don’t rely on the water cache at this location. It was bone dry during hiker season. A ride into the town of Burney will take roughly 20 minutes. Burney has some motels that belong to the same owners, a Safeway grocery store, a Subway store, a Rite aid and a small outdoor store.

CA 299 can be a useful place to hitch a ride into the town of Burney for resupply. There is also a water cache and a phone number to call Dave (or possibly other taxis) for the $10 ride. It is about equidistant to be dropped off afterwards at Burney Falls to get back on the PCT there as there is nothing to see on this segment in the dry forest, unless you want to come back here to hike every inch of the trail ...
