Title: New RockCrawling trail up in Big Bear? Post by: onewaysoldier on February 18, 2011, 12:21:43 PM Trying to figure out the name and location of a supposedly new rock-crawling trail up in Big Bear (Not John-Bull)? Any of you have intel on it? I've heard about it from a couple serious off-road folk but don't remember who I was talking with. The only think I know is that it's supposedly at the same difficultly level as the Rubicon, just a whole lot shorter.
Any help would be appreciated. If I remember correctly, my sources said it opened up about a year or two ago? Title: Re: New RockCrawling trail up in Big Bear?

It starts on BLM land ending on forestry service property making it questionably legal. It's a spur off of rattle snake canyon.

Got any other resources for trail info on it? You've got me curious about this trail.
