    Hiking the PCT northbound you will be at Highway 2 (Angeles Crest Highway) a little bit below Inspiration Point. This is a popular spot to hitch into the lovely mountain town of Wrightwood that has grocery stores, a well-stocked outfitter (Mountain Hardware), restaurants, accommodation, but no laundromat. If you are lucky there might be a water cache at the trailhead.

      The PCT Trailhead at Angeles Crest Hwy is a good place to hitch into or back from Wrightwood for resupply. While the view is great from the trailhead itself, just a little uphill from the Trailhead the overlook at Inspiration Point beckons for a 5 minute vista break.
