Trip Description:

• Rating: Moderate. It’s HIGHLY recommended that you have good All-Terrain tires. This trail has lots of sharp rocks that can wreak havoc on inadequate tires. We’ll make a pit stop in Yucaipa to refuel, if needed. 

Route: From our meeting spot, we’ll end up on HWY 38, heading towards Big Bear. We’ll jump off the pavement at 2N01, turning left on 2N02 and following it until we reach HWY 18. We’ll briefly be on the pavement as we take HWY 18 to 3N61.

If you’re like me and just said to yourself “…of course, 2N bla bla, 61…yeah, I know exactly where that is,” see the maps at the bottom of this page. 🙂
