    7/23 Big Bear Trail Report

    Great run guys! Glad everyone made it out there. Should of gotten better pics but my dad was the camera man and was too busy spotting me. Heres what i got before my camera got smashed!

    Gold mountain....where my trail damage begins. He made it look too easy.


    Kevin and Skate....good job keeping the new jeep new dispite my encouragement.


    Top of gold mountain


    First 3 wheel action of the day!


    Skate disrespecting his jeep


    Tried to jump the rocks! about a second later he had both front tires completely off the ground!


    Traffic Jam due to trail maintance....theres over 10 jeeps in line not including the EXCURSION!


    Me trying to get more body damage....or a popped side wall!


    Kevin abusing his bumper the whole way through the trail...Daystar, strong bumpers!


    Last pic on holcomb creek before the camera got smashed!


    THe only damage that was seen was ME. three cut sidewalls (stupid mastercrafts) and a nice scrape alongside my driver side door from the John Bull entrance. Thanks for everyones help with my TIRES!!! If you guys want me to email you pic of your rig just PM me with your email address and a discription of it ( i forget names easy). good times, maybe we can do Holcomb creek next month.

    THanks for everyones help with my brittle tires!

    Nate - this is way too funny - I was leading the group that aired down _right behind you_ at the base of Gold Mountain.

    My apologies - As the AAT coordinator I should have at least walked up and introduced myself (or on a more anal note - as an OHV volunteer I should have checked y'all for Adventure Passes)

    You're just upset because the voices in my head only talk to ME!

        We ran Gold Mountain, with the intent of running Jacoby and then Horsethief. Had several new "Host Candidates" with us - some very new to wheeling, so we stayed on the easier stuff (I even passed on 3N69A)

        There was a group of Dirt Devils behind us (3N34/Dishpan Springs AAT club), let them get past us at the top (that XJ in our group had lost front drive - had to strap him up the first set of rocks, and winch him up the stairsteps).

        We broke for lunch where 3N02 meets 3N16, then headed for 3N61 (Jacoby) when one of the group spotted smoke. Maps and radios came out, called it in to Dispatch - turned out that lightning had struck the backside of Gold Mountain right after we left!

        Never made it any further than that.

        Would only have issued a warning on the Adventure Pass (many, many push-ups)!

                          I think i am going to have to pass up on this run....every run for that matter until i get new tires, it could be a while.

                          Oh, Thanks Rick for the great guiding....do you do SCORE racing too? LOL.
