Can you provide more info on this trail? Kinda a long one...just making sure everyone can be prepared and know what to expect

 

pretty sure its just a dirt road. 2x friendly. i havent been on this side of burns canyon personally.

 

Maybe I was thinking of another trail pretty much the same area ....this one should be fun, I like that whole region out there as far as the terrain and its unique features

 

if you take burns to pontiac sluice to tip top mountian. 4x4 31" rear locker with sliders and skids required.

I love it up here. once i get my locker and sliders and bumper i plan on doing john bull and minitone (sp?)

 

too early for me to say but I am certainly interested, I have done this trail many times and there's nothing too crazy, definitely prerunner friendly. There's many trails in the area to explore, once you get up near the old mine the trails split up and you can end up near hwy 18 or hwy 38

 

Nothing huge.. The first part is a road that drives though private property, you may drive on the road just not stop and park in it.. It is really sandy. Then you start going up little hills which is a dirt road. Then you do climb up the mountain and are on a little rocky dirt road on the side of a mountain for a while which I think is kinda scary but that is me. Then you have a flat kinda spot, (on the sides you have little stuff you can go off and do if you would like). There is one water crossing if you go to the left when you get past the flat spot (have not been to the right I think there is a mine right there). The rest (to the left) is all dirt road just some coverts you have to drive over slow till you get up by Baldwin Lake...

 

Nice nice, gotta put my lift on!

 

im down, although it's really far away lol, im currently 2nd w/ locker, but i can go really fast

 

EAsy there hot rod, you almost sound like... ahh, you know who..

Please don't make me say it but it starts with a J and thats ALL I got to say about that !!!

 

^ haha, you did not just compare me to him

 

NO WAY man, dudes in a class of his own !!

 

^ yea, i took pictures of him jumping that day and i honestly thought I was gonna die

 

I'm gonna trail with some of you this fall , kinda burnt out on the trails here in SD if thats cool wit' ya'll ....

 

put that to a beat and you gotta start to a rap song, yo


and big bear trail are not the best to go fast on. unless you really wanna f shit up

 

so it's prerunner friendly to the point where you can go slow and not get stuck?

 

slow and easy, maintain traction. i wouldnt go bombing it because its mostly bigger rocks in sketchy parts. I plan on going up the trail today, ill report back the conditions.

some big bear dirt roads got gnarly from rain and the last earthquake we had. i plan on going to make sure its 2x friendly.
