I like long approaches. I prefer mountains without asphalt and the associated noise and vandalism that follows. Angeles Crest Highway serves no real purpose. When they finally reopened it after being closed for so many years, Caltrans had to drive up and down the closed section honking horns and trying to scare away the deer and big horn that had reclaimed the area.

Hopefully it will get avalanched out again this year, and with the California budget crisis it will be abandoned, much like the old route 39.
