Vasquez Rocks Natural Area, Wrightwood, Angeles Crest Highway 2 from Pearblossom Highway

4/15/2019

It's my nephew's Spring Break so he asked me to go on a little adventure. He has never been to Vasquez Rocks nor has been to Pearblossom Highway up to Wrightwood. We planned to take Angeles Crest Highway from the backside to La Cañada Flintridge since we already have been up the highway from that side of the mountain.

My favorite pit stop along Pearblossom Highway is Charlie Brown's in Little Rock. I decided to finally try their famous date milkshake.

Joshua Trees and wildflowers off a empty road along Pearblossom Highway. We decided to skateboard, take photos of the joshua trees and wildflowers. I even let my 13-year-old nephew take my car out for a spin.

My nephew hasn't seen snow in 2 years so we were on a mission to find snow.

We met a German-sounding guy who trying to hitch a ride to Wrightwood. He looked cold and tired. He just hiked 20 miles.

At this point, the highway was closed so there wasn't a way back to Los Angeles so we had to head back down to Pearlblossom Highway. This time we took an alternate route where we passed Devil's Punchbowl. Another place I want to visit. If you plan to do any hiking, you'll need to be prepared to park by bringing an Adventure Pass.
