    I was gonna say, if memory serves me correctly I've heard that Holcomb is one of the gnarlier 4x4 trails up in Big Bear lol.

    Ah that's right, I remember now. The gatekeeper is the main tricky part yea?

    Been awhile since I've done a harder trail that I wasn't already familiar with, be fun to get that adrenaline going again.

    edit: unless it's one of those 'front locker strongly recommended' trails, then I might have to sit it out unless someone with a winch is coming lol

    So far we potentially have @oni06 @uhplifted @lesterb315 @AssBurns (I can't help but crack up a little every time I type that name lol)

    I'm game for trying out Holcomb, going to look into some photos of it a bit more. @Mike likes Tacos you free this Sunday?

    haha all good

    I'd like to check out White Mountain again one of these days and go further down the trail, past where we turned off last time @dtaco06 ...I went a little further the first time I did that trail and got to some pretty hairy spots, eventually turned off because I was solo but it would be cool to go further down that way with a group sometime. Not sure if it's still considered White Mountain at that point or another trail.

    Wish I was. I have way too much work to do on the truck. I may get enough done on Sunday so I can go out next weekend.

    You may all be up for new bumpers after a Holcomb trip

    I remember when Brian got high centered on a mound after we climbed Lookout one of the first times we wheeled together, Mike had to pull him off haha. I think he ordered his Kings and rear lift shortly after that

    The gatekeeper doesn't look impossible...but this built Cherokee seemed to have some trouble on it. Looks like it would probably knock 20k miles off my clutch lol.

    You did kickass for your first time! Stuff like that would scare most people. Once we got your rear locker on you dragged right over it. Lol

    I have no idea how my clutch is still alive. @Nicklovin and others have seen me roast this thing a couple times.lol.
