Trail report, pics & videos: Big Bear Jan 7th - SAT

[TJSUPE]

i'm not one for snow wheeling (will definitely do some skiing hopefully soon though) ... do you guys want a roll call/event for this run?

I made a roll call, I dudnt link it in my original post, though.

Yes actually had to do some wheelin in the snow to get home , took back roads and the woods to avoid the tourists slippin and sliding. Really impressed by them, was axle deep in drifts in 4 hi and went right through. Very happy.........chains are not required to have on with 4x4's, just have to have them packed somewhere............Does anybody know if Lowes carries chains ? I need to get some

Woo hoo! How many inches? I looked at the big bear web cams, and it looks like it's snowing now (8pm) YAY

atleast 4 inches at my house which is 6800ft and when I was working yesterday at Snow Summit, was around 5-6 inches.

Holcomb Run

Interested, Just have a few ? How hard will it be with snow on the ground and is it a good run to bring along my 2 kids(7,9)?:bolt:

[TJSUPE]

I am sure it will be a bit more difficult in some spots. It all depends on how much snow in still on the ground. A lot may melt by Sat. Bring the kids along, Its always a family event!

Bring lunch, snacks, water or your favorite non-alcoholic beverage and dress warmly! It will be chilly up on the trails.

I think I speak for everyone on this site that the beer etc is for when the wheelin' is done and your butt is firmly planted in a chair around the campfire. Not for when your wheels are moving.

[TJSUPE]

Agreed:thumbs_up

Lowes out by me did not have chains. Super Wal-Mart carries them. Got a size big enough to go around my 33" 15x10's. I don't remember the item # but reading the package for sizes was challenging. Remember to give yourself enough time to fit them to your tires. They may need to be cut to fit. I needed to cut 3 links off my set for them to fit properly. Best to do it in the garage where it's dry rather than on the trail.

I may be out there Sat. if all goes well.

Just bring some tasty ding dongs for those bad moments on the trail eh Jeri?

I'm not going to make this run and have wanted to do a snow run perhaps next time...

Take some pictures!!
