Palmdale, CA

I only had 10 km left to the top of Mount Wilson, but it took me 3 hours on the Jeep track.

There I visited the museum and refilled my water bottles. Then I continued North. When I started the last big climb of the day with almost no water left. A passing motorist must have read my mind, because he stopped and have me two ice cold cans of soda.

Confusing: Mount Wilson is to the left.

All I could see on this map was that there was a water reservoir on the mountain.

The roads are sharply banked in the corners. As if they encourage drivers to speed up.
