Hey all 64 SoCal T4R members...HUGE meetup!

cover the north side of big bear...

fawnskin, etc etc. there's plenty of trails on that side of the mountain that you'll enjoy. plenty of area to cover for the stock rigs so don't worry.

when i get home, i'll look for some maps of bear that i have that has trail rating(s) on it and i'll email you mark.

email me so i can email ya back
 
Thanks Lance. Where are you up with your truck?


What I have listed on that side of BB is

Holcomb Creek - too difficult for our group
Butler Creek - easy but short
John Bull - difficult
Jacoby Canyon - moderate but short
Gold Mountain - difficult

Hope you can suggest something suitable.

Otherwise we need to switch venues quickly and Hungry Valley looks good although I have no knowledge about that area at all.
Maybe RXvedub could trail-lead this if he's been there. I guess you have been there too Lance?
 
Everything you list there will be very challenging on a stock rig. Anything is possible but I'd say not recommended for stock (unless you don't mind coming back w/ some nice Big Bear scars).

The map that I have will list the difficulty level so you can take a look at that tonight and see which trails best suit you.

you've got email w/ some details in there.

It's official. I can not go - apparently it is Mother's Day Weekend... Absolute bollocks. Have a great time!

Hopefully I will be available for the next one.
 
damit, mothers day and this meet on the came weekend as a formula 1 race, i need to pick two out of the three, and i hate say its not this. If it was closer to the city i would, but not 4 hour drive round trip.

plus no spare tire yet... what was i thinking?

next time guys.
 
I'm still going, I'll do some exploring by myself. I had asked for time off.

I'll post some pics up for you guys.
 
Is this still on? Sorry I haven't checked back in until now. As I said in my last post, I don't have as much computer access anymore. My girlfriend isn't going to go, but I got the OK to go solo. I'm going to PM my info to 04Runner just in case it is still on.
 
Looks like I'm the only dumbass without 4x4! Am I still invited or is this going to be too challenging. Later.
 
Geez:bash:

Well I'm going to be there, regardless of who goes.

I will be at Starbucks at 9am if anyone wants to meet up.

From there me and the family will head up to the Northern side of Big Bear and check out the trails that Lance has sent me a map of.

I will circulate the details that I have recieved via pm but at this stage I think its

1. Expat (Mark)
2. Rando (assuming we get a few more) ?????? How many is more?
3. Aztlan
4. Luxury

Hope to catch you guys Saturday morning.

Cheers
Mark :D
 
Jason - your mailbox is full - cannot send you details of everyone.

Rando - don't have your details. Are you coming?

Rogelio - I will try to call you by your cell.

Cheers
Mark
 
Doh! I thought this was off so other plans are in place now.

Have a good time and some good pictures! :D
 
Jason - I see your logged on - are you coming on the run?

I guess it will be mostly 4x4 which won't be too attractive to you.

If your not coming either, then I'm going to head to some trails in Santa Barbara instead.

Yeah, I told my girlfriend it might be off and I think she is hoping I will go with her for her plans.

SHIT! :( I was looking forward to it. SB huh? I am their 90% of the time lately. Just drove back from there today! FOR THE DAMN MEET IN BIG BEAR! Just Kidding. I came to the OC for Mother's Day. Sorry everything didn't work out this time. I'll try to be more involved next time and maybe we can setup that parking lot meet.

I emailed you and also cleared space in my inbox if you want to go that route. But, I guess I'm out. Have fun and get some dirt on your 4runner for me. :D -Jason

My question still stands......should I wait till the next trip since I don't have 4x4?

I guess so, but don't know when the next trip will be. I sure won't organise another one...its too difficult to get confirmed attendances to provide time for planning.

I think I'll just travel with the YT guys. They are more into off-road stuff than here at T4R.

Bad luck - I was hoping to check out your rig. Maybe one day someone will try again for a carpark meet which we can catch up at.

Cheers
Mark
