Julian, California
Julian, California is a small town located west of the Pacific Crest Trail at mile 77. Julian mainly caters to tourists. As a result, there is not a whole lot of interest to hikers but it is still possible to do a fairly decent resupply here. There are also a few quirky shops and places to stay.
