Yup it is. For now anyways. :)

4WD conversion seems like the only mod you're missing
I love it when a plan comes together

Anyone planning any runs during the holidays?

After spending $8.00 in quarters at the car wash, going through a bucket of SP80 and Back to Black, a little Scratch X, some Maguiar's Speed Detailer and an entire day cleaning the mud out of my truck this weekend, I thought I would put an end post to this run that we did less than two weeks ago.  If you decide to take Bee Canyon up to Idyllwild and go through Hemet to get there, you may be surprised at some of the sights and landmarks you will find to explore on the way. 

It was raining pretty good when I left home, but the rain eventually started to clear up although the skies were still dark.  As I looked south and saw the same ominous clouds, I thought of the crew that was making their way up from Fallbrook.



By the time I got to Hemet the skies had cleared up and it was downright warm.  I saw the mountain in the distance and knew I was getting close.  When I got close to the mountain, I saw a lot of trails carved into it that would have been fun to explore.





I had some time before meeting up with everyone so I decided to stop in to check out this place. But it was another 15 minutes before they opened so I decided not to wait around.



Here is a view from the front. Notice the cool looking X in the picture. ;D



I saw some dirt so I follow it around and was surprised to find this classic plane.



An adventurous person must have had fun flying this at one time.



I was hungry so I thought Chinese for breakfast?  Sure, why not.  But no luck, closed.



The view from the dining tables would be unique, to say the least.



I finally arrived in Hemet and found an Indian Reservation (at least the sign) right in the center of town. I learned the hard way in Borrego that usually they don

Marshann your '01 is SO clean!! Great day. Still grinnin' when I tell amigos the story - from dirt & desert to hills, mountains and their highest peaks, through rain mud & snow - a most epic of ventures.

Backcountry Adventures Southern California book lists the waypoints for the portions of Bee Canyon to Idyllwild.  There may be a connecting trail in the book that extends down to the San Diego area that lists those GPS tracks as well.
