Did you see that group of toyota trucks that were all modified with external roll cages? We saw a group of like 8-9 of them on the trail and then at Vons....It took us 4 hours to drive down the mountain on Sunday night, how did you do?
Those guys were from Long Beach and my buddy in his JK hooked up with them near John Bull and went down into Apple Valley through the Coxy Truck trail. I live in the High Desert and we went down Sunday afternoon the back way into Lucerne Valley and had no traffic.

I wish I was going on the Mojave run but I need a weekend at home. I have not had a full weekend at home since xmas. I have wheeled more this year than all of last year combined. Maybe we can hookup on a trail someday.
We are camping at the Calico cleanup in a couple of weeks. Maybe we will see you there.

Re: Big Bear Snow Pics

I was up there as well, but the 3N16 trail had a close sign posted.

Also, it was super icey as well.

Did you just keep going and ignore the sign?

I was going to do that, but my FJ slipped on a bunch of ice and I got a little nervous (Chicken).

My wife and I where on our own as well.

This is a pic of 3n16 Friday night before the H1's went through on Saturday.
I made it about 200 yards further than anyone else but there was so much frozen snow I lost all traction and had to turn back. This pic is at Big Pine flats on 3n16 going toward John Bull.

We went out on friday and saturday, started on 2N09 and went over to 3N16 from that way....there were no closed signs...which way did you go in?....but on Sunday after about 20 mins of heading down 3N16 we ran into a couple of Jeeps and one of them was stuck, that was the sign for us to turn around....then my buddy got his Ranger stuck.....I pulled them both out with the FJ!!!!!!! This is us on 3N16....

Re: Big Bear Snow Pics
