John Bull

[Old Fart]

Shouldn't be that bad - but I wouldn't advise it in the rain with bald tires. When we determined the "easy line" (all Black Diamond trails in the SBNF have a 31"/1 locker line), we weren't thinking "in the rain"

Part of my CIA background - I can be many places at once

Coming along good - replaced one of my batteries (plates shorted), just need to smog it. May be able to regear to 5.38's soon

It means that there is at least one line on every obstacle that you can do in a vehicle (we assume a stock TJ) that has 31" tires, appropriate lift and a rear locker. This keeps people from creating bypasses.

Here's a realtime report from one of my people that lives up there:

"For those coming up over the weekend it might get cold as it's snowing
like crazy here in Sugarloaf (Big Bear) right now and actually starting
to stick, and there's a 40% chance of snow on Friday night and Saturday
night. So I guess our annual Mothers Day snow is a bit late. Check
www.wunderground. com for a weather report for the weekend."

Wow. Hotter then heck one day and snowing the next. Gotta love Calif.

Yep. I had a patrol on Gold Mountain a few years back, started the day in shorts and my FS (short sleeve!) shirt - wound up with ice in my beard on the backside of the trail.

(note: ALWAYS bring the soft top and doors)

Interesting. Thanks for the info.

I plan on doing this trail Sunday, but would prefer not to go alone.
