Written Directions

Start in La Canada (on the east side of LA) and take Highway 2 east up into the mountains and in to the route's end point of Wrightwood, CA.

Scenery

Pure Alpine scenery just minutes from downtown Los Angeles. Fresh air, trees, mountains and blue sky all day long.

Drive Enjoyment

Lots of twisting mountain roads, sweeping curves and switchbacks climbing up to approx 7000 ft. The road is in excellent condition and much of it is new. Its two lanes with occasional passing lanes and little traffic other than bikes on weekends.

Tourism Opportunities

Newcomb's Ranch is a fantastic stopping point with great food, weekend bbq and lots of classic and new bikes to view in the lot. A very congenial atmosphere and beyond biker-friendly!

Great route just be on the lookout for people crossing the double yellow and rocks in the road.
