    John bull is ALWAYS fun. Sometimes it's much easier than other times. I've ran that trail probably 20 times now and have never broken down. never been stuck to the point that i couldnt work my way out.
    The last time I went up, although I was not getting stuck, others were having serious issues.
    As soon as I showed up at the entrance there were two built cherokee's. 1st one was double diff high centered and required a pull. then the other one broke a steering line. they left.
    Then the stock rubi kept getting stuck. mostly due to having an inop front locker. then an open diff tj sport was (to mildly put it) having driver skills issues.. he left. I got the rubi about 200 yards and 4 stucks. after a hi lift handle to the face, I decided we were done..
    It rained hard that morning and the soil was very wet and slippery. Thats what made it so hard for everyone that day..
    Glad you guys had fun!

    Crap! I Didn't see this before I went to bed last night so thought I was out of luck in finding a partner.

    Family and I are heading up there later today to do some geocaching.

I would LOVE to join you but i gotta find a place to live in san diego tomorrow. Got a new job!!!!!! YAY

    [COLOR="Sienna"]I would go, but I'm doing trail maintenance that day on Holcomb. Strikers rig is fully capable.

    And for Jeff, when's the last time you were on Holcomb? 32's and one locker my a$$...
