Trails--

A list of trails and required equipment will be posted soon. We will offer a difficult, moderate and an easy trail so there will be something for everyone. All trails will be lead by an experienced off roader who knows the area well. The trail leader has the final say on the required equipment needed for each trail. These requirements are not designed to discriminate against anyone, but to enhance the experience for the people on that trail.

My luck stinks on this event. I have always wanted to make it but it always seems to conflict with a previous trip I have planned. I will make it one day, just not this year

AZ guys, if you can swing this trip, you will not regret it. The So Cal group is a great group and they always pick out some scenic and fun trails to hit, which in Big Bear is not hard at all. Ive always wanted to make it back there.

later,mike

If there are those of you interested in a little more "off the beaten path" camping with more privacy, look for the "yellow post" campsites. If I remeber right, they limit to 2 vehicles and 8 people. Most have a picnic table and a fire pit, nothing more. They are also free to use (once you have the SBNF Adventure pass) and all you have to do is "get squatted" and go to the Visitor Center and register you're at the site to get a fire permit. My wife and I prefer this when we camp up there.

Website for the San Bernardino National Forest (info on camping, etc.): http://www.fs.fed.us/r5/sanbernardino/

You can also buy your adventure pass online and have it mailed to your house in advance.

If anyone is curious, I have trail maps of the area, and I think I have one with yellow post campsites including a GPX file for those of you with Garmin GPS devices that can use it.

I hope this was helpful.
