Topic: CANVAZ II - California Edition - BIG BEAR!!!! October 26th-28th

[Pro4X-Gremlin]

James & I are still flip flopping back n forth about whether or not to attend & request being added the green trail on Saturday: Rattlesnake run

Don't laff. Not familiar with this trail either. This water crossing...is it a BIG crossing? or a little crossing? Oh what the heck...go ahead and laff.

[knightrider]

Just sign up, it'll be lots of fun and you will learn that a stock pro4x is pretty damn capable.  Just hide a key to the house and tell the company heading into town to grab a cab and you'll be home when ya get there :-)

I'd like to know how deep the water crossing is too. I haven't done the axle vent mod yet. I'm lagging on the mods 

[xxSVxx]

Whoa Whoa Whoa...

Ok.  If I remember, this was at the end of the day and not technically a part of Rattlesnake Canyon;  however, if you look at the pix in the link I'm about to post, you'll see the water came half way up the door.

Catch being IT WAS FEBRUARY.  February tends to be a much wetter month than, say, October of 2012.

Can't.  Freaking.  Wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

The water crossing is on Forestry Service Trail 2N02...and it's really not that deep...if you're riding in a lifted Xterra.  

CANVAZ II - California Edition - BIG BEAR!!!! October 26th-28th

You don't need a Forest Pass to get out of your truck to stash crap in the woods...you need it to find crap that's been stashed in the woods...along with a $300 GPS receiver...and don't forget the $1,100 bumper on the front of your truck...several $200 mods that you installed (sliders, skids...) that actually reduce your mileage but protect your rig...and on and on.

Buy the pass and add it to the list...or don't.  

Your call.

No laughing...run Rattlesnake Canyon if timing permits...you won't regret it.  It's a great trail.

I made my reservation at Robinhood Resort for Fri/Sat and I plan on heading up from North County SD (Carmel Mtn Ranch Area) maybe around noonish on Fri.  I'd like to get up there and find a great place for some grub and then plan for a somewhat mild evening...  You get to be an old fart like me and you want to pace yourself the the three days.  Anybody else want to 'CARAVAN to CANVAZ', give me a PM or sign up here...  

This will be a Sweet Weekend!

[RockinX]

It looks like my dog will be coming with me since I will have contractors working outside my house for about 2-3 weeks and I can't leave my pup locked inside.  I'll be at the Robinhood but no clubbin' for me.   

Come on CANVAZ!  When ya going to get here.  T-minus countdown....

[RBduffer]

The water crossing is great fun and was no problem for any stock X in Feb.  I just hope there's some water to cross in Oct.
BTW, I'm the second truck (with the silly brush guard) in John's photo above.  This was my very first trail and it's a blast for all ages!
Let's get wheelin'

The weather in Big Bear is so bipolar. One minute its 90F the next its pouring rain. I wouldn't want to be caught in the canyons or on a water crossing while a flash flood warning is out.

GhostX Please add James & I to the Sat green trail as well: Rattlesnake Canyon
