LA county-ish run 01.26

[hostbar]

Axed - I have straps, and a hi-lift, but my winch isn't mounted yet. We can skip any areas that look too tough.

Hostbar - I grew up in Burbank and live in NH now. If you all want to "convoy" we could meet somewhere local and then head out (Say 8:00?).

I will update the roll call as well

sure

convoy sounds good. suppose we should pick a place after you do roll call. i vote for a 7-11 to allow for last minute snack and drink/cofee buying. theres one right by the I-5 near Buena Vista and Glenoaks Blvd (Near Woodburry Univ.)but im open to other ideas.

 

[philos1]

How about the 7-11 at Olive and Victory, that way it's close for all of us and we can get on the freeway nearby? 8:00 still good?

 

[lacruiser]

Y'all have a good time up there tomorrow. I can't make it.

Don't slide off the mountain!

 

[axed existence]

the 7-11 on olive/verdugo is fine. ill see you there at 8:00.

hostbar: are you gonna meet up with us at the 7-11?

otherwise, guess its just philos1 and i who will meet the rest at cleghorn.

It's Olive and Victory now? I thought it was Olive and Verdugo?

Anyway, we should check this site early in the morning before we head off.

thats my mistake. im the one who caused that confusion. the 7-11 isthe one on olive/VICTORY. (theres another on verdugo/olive and i must have accidentally wrote that down, while thinking i was writing victory.)

ill check this thread once again in 7 hours.

 

[hostbar]

I'm getting ready now - see you guys soon.

 

[e9999]

well, where are the pics?

I hope you guys got to drive on more snow than I did...

 

[85 SA Toy]

It was a great day out.... and Cleghorn was really snowed in up near Pucker Hill...... We tried to take the by-pass and half way up the snow was too deep..... Had to turn around, we ran the trail from the 138. It was a great day and the snow made for some awesome obstacles. And on the way out I beleive I saw SoCalFJ driving on to the trailhead..... How far did you get??



Pics to come....... Uploding them right now!

 

[axed existence]

It was a great day out....

definitely.

expect my pictures to be uploaded in the next day two.

 

[SOCALFJ]

Yep that was us... we had already completed our trip and i was showing my buddy silverwood lake real quick. We got up to Willow Creek Jeep trail up near the Pinnacles behind Arrowhead. The snow was really difficult to get through because it was almost frozen over. We made it further than anyone else. I was cutting trail with the 80. Had to winch a FJ cruiser and push a RAV4. Im uploading my pics right now.
