Big Bear V (56k Beware: May cause meltdown)

[Blue 92]

Yea Common sense tells me that going out by myself would be bad. I need to find people around here to go with.

I also have to find a good beginning area. I've heard a lot about Reiter Pit but lots of people say its not a great place to start out at.

I really went overboard on those last 3, I wouldn't do that to an entire trip of pictures.

I just did things like boost the saturation and contrast, then add a vignette around the edges, and a few other things.

Awesome, looks great! :bigok:

Thanks

I still think the full-sized picture of my avatar came out the best though. It's in the Saddleback thread.

 

[bobbyavidity]

Yeah I saw that. Awesome picture...who took that fine picture hahah but seriously the editing looks really good.

Awesome! Looks like fun. If I ever move to SoCal, I'll be sure to bring my Runner with me and check out Big Bear.

Nice pics, wish we had places like that nearby to go to. How far do you need to travel to go out wheeling?

 

[kellogg]

Big Bear Lake is about a 1.5-2hr drive from LA and SD. Most of the popular trails and the desert OHV parks around here can be reached within that time frame also. Socal is awesome!

Kellog is pretty much right. About 2 hours for Big Bear, and a little over an hour for the other places like Gorman (Hungry Valley), less for Cleghorn (about 45 mins), etc.

Well, Big Bear V (5) was today. Had a great group of people, great weather, and an awesome time.

Isn't 10 lights a little overkill?...

Out in the deserts here in SoCal they are very useful. Also with just the lower lightbar there was still some room for improvement and when I bought the roof basket there were already light tabs, so I figured why not?

Also, it's 8 not 10

If you are counting the lights themselves, you are wrong, there are 8.

If you are including the trucks normal lights as well, you are still incorrect... there are 12 in that case including the highbeams.
