Ah I know it's a late post, but sugar pine mountain 2n49 is a nice trail, along with rattlesnake canyon rc3331 to 2n01 is nice as well, with only a few hairy spots (stock 3rd gen w/2" lift and highway tires and I made it). Can bbq on both to my knolege.
 
Over by the 15 Freeway is Sheep Creek Truck Trail. Did it a few weeks ago in my 2WD 4th gen. Easy dirt road with great views. Took me about 3 hours.
 
Yes forgot about sheep creek truck trail. It is a beautiful drive, not that rough and a great drive. There's a few places up Lytle creek too, but they can be rough.
 
Just got back from Big Bear 2N02

My Baby Girl doesn't like either elevation changes or being bounced around. She surferred from motion sickness and puked like 4 times on the trail.

We still want to get out there. And enjoy being out there. Just something new we have to deal with.

I'll do some crazy stuff by myself or with the older kids
 
That's a bummer about the motion sickness, 2n02 is pretty rough, really rough towards the backside.

I once ran into a few other off roaders up on cleghorn and one of them had a infant in the back and was taking some of the extra credits. Funny thing is the kid was out like a rock, I swear I heard snoring lol.

But sheep creek is pretty smooth, it is a well maintained fire road. But going up to it through Lytle creek (past the shooting range) can be really rough.

Gold fever loop is docile and smooth up in big bear. Also 4n16 is a nice out and back too that is smooth.

I do up to Lytle creek pretty often with my boys and there are a few mellow roads up there. I also did cleghorn with my boys, one of whom is 1 years old, and they all slept most of the trail. Actually pretty much anytime I take them out for a trail run they sleep most of the time lol
 
Lol that's funny, when I was a kid and we did anything of the sort I was wired awake and usually sitting on my dad's lap "driving". I have yet to finish exploring Lytle creek, I usually do off roading after a range day up there, ends up being super relaxing. Really wanted to get up to the top of mt baldy but it's a closed gate.

There are a few trails that lead into Joshua tree NP that I have been eyeing. They are on notarubicon's website, I think they are berdoo canyon and old Dale road. I enjoy a challenge once in a while, but I'm not into rock crawling or massive trail damage to the 4runner.

I’d like to venture out and do some more trails outside of just the local San Bernardino mountains. And that gate to mt baldy has been closed since I starting going up to Lytle creek back in 2009
 
Yeah just had to check in the runner lol. My dad and I rode our mtn bikes back from baldy side to Lytle creek a few years ago and I kind of remembered it from then. Yeah I too am kind of wanting something besides San Bernardino mountains. I'm also looking at running the Mojave trail some time too.

Well till then maybe we can hit up some trails in Lytle creek together lol
 
[MENTION=126795]06_dark_knight[/MENTION] im thinking of going up there this weekend either sunday or monday, I have Monday off. Probably will be sometime in the after noon if your interested.
 
Son of a biscuit. I have to work on my 4runner on Sat as there is stuff that needs fixing stat. I'm always down to run trails (weekends for now) so just let me know if you go!

I just got my rear lift in today and I wanna put that on this weekend too... but I’ll definitely let you know next time I plan on going
 
[MENTION=116156]TheWraith[/MENTION] Haven't ran that trail yet, let us know how it went/is. Ok looking at topo/sat maps looks like it might be similar to cleghorn, as in running along a mountain side. Looks to run along a few washes/creeks too. Probably will be hot.

Edit to add end pic at 243, seems there is a gate on the trail to the right. Just shy of 13 miles and an elevation gain of 4100 feet from 74 north to 243.
