(within last 6 months)

Bull Frog (10/17/2022)

First time in Cougar Buttes. Highlights from the #jeeptalkshow Event 2022 on Bullfrog and Cake Walk Trails. Apparently these two trails overlap a little and the first and last obstacles in this video are actually on Bullfrog trail. 9 rigs all but one on 37's, 2 door JKR on 35's. You will use for skids/armor out here.

Ness’s Notch (10/17/2022)

Highlights from the #jeeptalkshow Event 2022. We ran this trail West to East, the opposite of Josh's video. Waterfall going up looks very intimidating, but we made short work of it. You will use your rock sliders on this trail. 9 rigs, all but one on 37's, one JKR on 35's.

3N93 - Holcomb Creek Trail (10/16/2022)

Another super fun trail in the Big Bear area. This one requires skid plates and least a rear locker, but you'll want a front as well. We were traveling East to West with 9 rigs, all but one on 37's. One 2-door JK on 35's with F/R lockers. The middle rock garden in the hardest, and likely harder going "up" when going East to West. Had to winch one JK that literally got stuck between a rock and a hard place in the middle garden. Surprisingly the Gladiator and the 2-door JK made it through with the least trouble. There are a few other challenging obstacles, but all doable with good spotters. Got a little rain at the end which made it interesting.

3N10 – John Bull (10/13/2022)

Super fun trail in the Big Bear area. Most run East to West. Ran with JTR, JL, and JK, all on 37's. Skids will be utilized. Three tougher obstacles...gatekeeper, middle waterfall "tin man", and the ledge adjacent to the huge tree "tipsy tree". Spotters helpful. Took us about 2 hours, but did not run into any traffic.
