BTW, you can search YouTube for trails in Big Bear and se ALOT!!!

Some trails to search for:

Deep Creek or Dishpan Springs
John Bull
Gold Mountain
White Mountain
Pontiac Sluice
Heartbreak Ridge
3N16
Holcomb Creek
Jacoby Canyon


Most of these trails are "harder" trails for the area. There are many other trails, I just don't know alot of the names.
