Look At This: Angeles Crest Highway

- If you're looking for a scenic view and a quick getaway from Los Angeles the Angeles Crest Highway is just an hour away from the busy city. The highway travels from La Cañada Flintridge through the Angeles Forest and out past Wrightwood.
The 66 miles Angeles Crest Highway is by far one of the best road to drive on for its exceptional scenic view. The 11 miles Tail of the Dragon highway in Tennessee can't even compare to the Angeles Crest. I'm so grateful to be a resident of California.
Great views and awesome pull outs to take in nature! Be a confident defensive driver who is okay with twists and turns, know how to be in a lower gear when descending, and look out for other drivers and you will be fine. Pack water, snacks, and lunch and make it a day outing. Fill up with a full tank before you start your trip!! Lack of gas stations up there.
Always stay between the mustard and the mayonnaise, and pull over in the designated pull-over areas to let faster vehicles by, thank you!!!
yes its filled with thrills and beautiful views but its very dangerous when learning about this accident history of this highway....i was just on this road earlier i feel lucky to make it out alive
Its the most dangerous stretch of highway with sharp curves and steep inclines. If you are not expierenced avoid it. And if you do drive on it move over for faster cars. Focus on the drive not the view.. danger awaits.
@Joe Duke Yeah baby!!! No speed limit race course!
Yes get into a head on collision
Exactly!! How well I remember all you've ststed.
This is such a great drive/ride. It's also a very dangerous highway. Any given weekend you will find "race cars" and "race bikes" being stupid. I was riding my motorcycle behind a guy that went straight into a guard rail. Lost his leg and had to get a helicopter ride down because ambulances can't get there fast enough. Unfortunately Newcomb's Ranch is closed permanently. It was also historical. Be safe out there.
Oh wow I never knew about this cool😎
This is a very beautiful but dangerous. So be careful. It does get snow . The highway does freeze over. I have helped people get un stuck.
They should open the 39 hwy to get to the 2 hwy interception
Never going to happen
That’d be a great trip if I HAD SOME GAS TO WASTE!
Forgot to mention the car sickness on all those turns
Who can afford such a lavish expenditure? I'm not Bezos, and the gas costs are now prohibitive
Hell no! I have kids i need to come home to.
I was driving this dangerous ass highway today, I was very unfamiliar with it and didn’t know it had turn off points, so I was going the speed limit which is 25 to 30mph most of the highway. Everyone drives at speeds atleast 45 to 55mph with sharp curves and turns. Had a man jump out of his truck and flip me off and yelled at me for going the speed limit??? .. avoid that highway at all cost. Also had my 1 year old son, 5 year old nephew and 67 year old mom with me in the car. I’m not putting my family in danger because of reckless drivers ⚠️
speed limit is 45 bud
lmao
I drive on it at least once a week from Glandale to my my house in Lake LA
At $7 a gallon, no normal person can afford a nice drive around the block, let alone a pleasure drive through the mountains
Yeah luckily I used to drive these beautiful roads out of necessity; going to work everyday 😁
Is this more dangerous than Ortega highway?
Yes, Ortega is a freeway and hardly has any curves .
ortega is a leisurely breeze compared to ach, this shit is technical asf
Safety first, no double laning, and always know your route.
Rode it on my motorcycle before there is a nice bar out there also. Or was it's been years
No mention about all the bodies that are found there? Lol
They need to make it 3 lanes on each side! It's getting pretty packed now wit everyone moving to lancaster nd Palmdale going to work in L.A..
In addition to fires prepare for unbelievable amount of vehicle accidents. Some of the mountain side looks like it's being shredded for housing. Don't be surprised to hear of homeless encampments either.🤷♀
Homeless encampments? Your telling me homeless are gonna walk all the way up to where there’s no food stores or anything? Get help
@@noahshields507 plus it gets cold there and hot during summer. Homeless people don’t like that weather as well..
Yes, go joy riding with $6/gallon gas, on a road built by prisoners. If you want to get killed by a wreck less driver in a high end car, can’t recommend enough.
Yep, this is baffling. Record high gas prices, lets all go waste gas driving a scenic route out to the Cajon pass, where we can then sit in traffic for 2 hours coming back to LA!
What's wrong with it being built by prisoners??? Oh yaaaaa...I forgot! Your sh@t don't stink like everyone else's🙄🙄🙄
Yes please use the damn turnouts, and stare out into the distance all you want.
Fires are coming soon
Bucket list
The Crest ✌🏼 , watch out for the wannabe racers and idiot motorcyclists that think their MotoGP racers . 😂 no free advertisement for NR
T
Wth lol
Be warned!!! Beautiful? Yes
This is a very dangerous road because of the stupid stunt drivers/riders that use it as a cheap race track. If you decide to go don’t be surprised to see an accident or even be involved in one. The sad part is that it’s not because you’re a bad drivers but because of other bad/stupid drivers or bike riders.
Prison labor.
too many punks now
