      • Thanks everyone, I'm not trying to slow the group down, north shore drive is the easiest way, I'm sure I'll find an easy close place to park the tow rig for the day,

              You and your brother have different Jeeps, or riding in 1 Jeep?

                  I lost the ability to edit the OP. I asked for permission, so hopefully will be able to update it again. If not, will post an update.

                        Welcome to MJR! Come on up! Looks like we will be breaking into at least 2 groups, maybe 3 now depending on how many total show up, and how many go on the advanced run to John Bull.

                        What's you rig build like?

                        I've never run Gold Mountain myself, so can't speak for how difficult it is. From what I've heard, it's one of the easier Big Bear runs. That said, Big Bear forest fest rates it as medium difficulty. If you did all the spurs of Cleghorn, I would think you can handle Gold Mountain.

                        Post your build, I'm sure others can chime in that have run it. Pretty sure even a stock Jeep can handle it.

                          • I didn't even know I still had this account -
                            I might be meeting you guys up (Justruns are running the same routes) I rather go with a bit smaller group - lots of dust in the back sucks -If anything I'll see you guys on the trail

                            Nine am not 9:30am

                              Thanks! never heard of it till now haha and as for my jeep I got stock axles with open diff. 5 inch lift on 33's with track and sway off and got front and rear bumpers with tow hooks... and as for recovery i got a tow strap... the jeeps nothing crazy... let me know what you or anyone else thinks...ive never been up to big bear with the jeep so i dont know what to expect really... the only think i don't have on your "list" is a Hi-lift jack... i may be able to borrow one from a friend if i really need to...i have gone with him my last two times so i haven't gotten around to getting one yet

                                9:00 AM is correct. I hope we can leave the Discovery Center before 9:30. I'll post my phone number on Friday. If someone is running late, give me a call.

                                All info is in the OP.

                                Yeah Dakota, you're build is definitely more than good for Gold Mountain! See you Saturday! Btw, the jack requirement is a jack to lift your Jeep if you get a flat, not a hi lift.
