| Post subject: | Big Bear - July 20th thru 22nd |
ey gang, I am planning on doing a run in Big Bear on Saturday, July 21st. I will probably head up Friday afternoon and stay the entire weekend. I will be staying in a cabin with the family and do a little fishing and hiking. I would like to have folks stay the evening for dinner, either in town or maybe even BBQ at the cabin. Here's a link to the cabin: http://www.bigbear1.com/units/0619.html The price will ultimately depend on the number of folks interested in staying in the cabin. It will sleep about 16, plus there is room on the floor.. LOL PM me if you are interested in staying in the cabin. $50 deposite required! As for the run, I have talked to several people and it's possible we will have a nice little crowd. I may need someone to lead another trail. The purpose for this trip is to allow my wife to finally wheel her TJ! She will be driving, I will be spotting her. We will run Gold Mountain and probably John Bull. It really depends on how comfortable she is. If she is "afraid" of John Bull, I will take her to Jacoby Canyon. I think she will be fine with JB, once we get through the first rock obstacle. I know alot of folks like running Deep Creek and Holcomb Creek, so I am looking for a leader for that trail. My wife would be OK on Holcomb, but she has seen the pictures of the waterfall on Deep Creek and said she does not want to try that for a while. So here are the details: Meet at the Big Bear Discovery Center at 9:00 AM on Saturday, July 21st. Divid into groups and head out. Meet back at the Discovery Center around 5:00 ish and figure out dinner plans. This is NOT a LOST sponsored event. Required equipment: Jack spare tire tow points first aid kit hard top or roll bar seat belts Stock Jeeps CAN run Gold Mountain. Rock rails are not required, but your rockers may get damaged. For the more difficult runs, the trail leader (whoever that may be) will have the final say. Usual requirements are at least 31" tires, lift, rock rails, tow points, spare, jack, first aid kit, at least one locker or limited slip, and gas tank skid. Post up if you are interested! May try to run something on Sunday AM - Pontiac Sluice or similar... |

FYI, your wife can easily get out at the waterfall and walk around it; it's short. Plus, there are several lines available. |

Thanks Ted. I know, but this particular weekend has alot more planned than I can write about. As for her, it's "HER" Jeep and she wants to drive it... LOL As for several lines, I am only aware of two... striaght up the rocks and the by-pass. Even the by-pass can be a little tricky in one spot.... I hope to see some LOST folks up there for this. I have not seen any replies of people confirming.... Anyone???? Thanks again Ted. |
