Big Bear Run in August

Loose_Nuts_Enterprises · Jun 3, 2003

Hey guys, My family(severely extended family) and group are going to be caping at crab flats campground Aug 8-10. Probably do holcomb creek trail and dishpan, kind of our annual tradition, and possibly john bull. I'd like to exten the invitation to you.
If you are thinking of camping at teh campground, I encourage you to make reservations right away. We're a real casual group, usually getting out of camp between 9-10am.

It would be great to have you!

Hmmm I might show up for a day

Gears!

If I get my gears dan I'll be there!

Loose_Nuts_Enterprises · Jun 22, 2003

Rabbit, you need to get that 'remodel' finished so you can work on your gears! Let me know if you need any help, I know how to use a hammer.

I'll probably go on the runs. I won't have to camp, though, since I'm probably moving to a cabin in Arrowbear in a few weeks.

Perfect staging place, if people want to meet there for Big Bear runs! I'm stoked, it's only 20-30 minutes down the hill to my work, and cheaper than my ghetto one-bedroom apartment in Colton!

wow....... what kind of a job you have to be able to live in arrowbear? SKiing... wheeling.... oh man... I envy you.

The only bad part is there's no driveway or garage. Tim... Jay... May be wanting to borrow one of your driveways for future upgrades! :spin1:

I was talking to the neighbor lady, and she seems cool. I need to get in good with her so I can get her to let me park my boat on her property!

borrow driveway?

I can let you work in my driveway but as far as hauling it up there I might miss it too much! Com' on down the hill, got all the tools and access to many more. Welder, air tools, jacks, stands, space.

woooooooooooooow

mgolden · Jun 27, 2003

Sweet! I may take you up on that! Planning on tossing on a 4.5" lift in the near future!

I have a stock xj. Are the trails to tough for it?

Loose_Nuts_Enterprises · Jun 30, 2003

Your XJ would probably make it, although there are a few spots that aren't exactly "rocker panel friendly." We had a grand cherokee with a 3 inch lift and 31s up there last year and he got a few good dingers. I can't say for sure if it's inevitable though, because I don't think he waited for a spotter before he went for it. That was on Holcolmb Creek Trail. Have you done much wheeling before? If not, you may want to find someone to ride with. Don't want to give you a bad experience your first time out with a dented up XJ. That tends to put a hamper on the fun factor. But, you're more than welcome whatever you decide.

I'm hoping that the forest doesn't get closed before we go on this trip. May plan an alternate trip to Los Coyotes Indian Reservation if it does get closed. I hope the refund our money for our reservations at crab flats if it is closed.

Loose_Nuts_Enterprises · Jul 17, 2003

Looks like the plan has definitely changed. Los Coyotes Indian Reservation it is. I've never been there but I'm being told by friends who have, that the trails and scenery are great. Also they have a lot more space for camping, and is cheaper too.

Let me know if you're interested, and I'll get you directions.

Where is Los Coyotes? Terrain? I've heard the name before but all things aside I'm still pretty clueless.

Anybody?

Loose_Nuts_Enterprises · Jul 17, 2003

It's down in the mountain range between Julian and Anza, toward Lake Elsinore. The elevation is similar to Big Bear, but mostly Juniper trees as opposed to conifers. Its trails are mild to stupid. One called El Hill is infamous for gnarly end over end rollovers for short wheelbase rigs. Probably avoid that one. The horror stories already have me psyched out. I'll see if I can't find a map on mapquest or something.

Dan

Kejtar · Jul 17, 2003

Los Coyotes Indian Reservation is down south in SD county... .can't give you a precise location but from what I heard it's got some really nice trails of varied difficulty.... yup Tim.. it means that you'd actually have to drive to a trail for a change

Loose_Nuts_Enterprises · Jul 17, 2003

let's see if this works

Loose_Nuts_Enterprises · Jul 17, 2003

Take the 15 south to Temecula, take hwy 79 to the reservation. I've never been there but I hear is's awesome.

You web-wheelers better make it, LOL.

Weird, every time I hit the Back button, the map zooms out. Go to mapquest and look for warner springs, or Oceanside and scroll around until you find it.
