Three Points Trail Head: distance indicated is west of Grassy Hollow

Three Points 29.2 miles from Grassy Hollow

This is a junction mentioned in Cloudburst Summit and Mt. Waterman above. Three trails meet here; The Mt. Waterman, PCT and the Silver Moccasin. The Silver Moccasin is a Boy Scout merit badge trail coming up from the La Canada area. The PCT and the Silver Moccasin join together here and follow the same path to the summit of Baden-Powell, where the Silver Moccasin terminates.

From here, you can reverse the Mt. Waterman Trail to Buckhorn.

From the parking lot at Three Points, you can take the PCT north to Sulphur Springs Campground in 3.2 miles. An additional 5.9 miles will take you to Pacifico Mountain Campground. An additional 5.6 will take you to Mill Creek Summit at Angeles Forest Highway. Sulphur Springs to Mill Creek is 11.5 miles and a good car shuttle.

Just below the parking lot at Three Points, the Silver Moccasin trail heads east. It takes you past Bandido Horse Campground to Chilao. This is about 3-4 miles. From Chilao the trail goes on to Charlton Flat in about 3-4 miles. This area is lower and gets quite hot in the summer.
