Yes. SCCX already led an expedition up there a few years ago (before I was around) and cut it in half with a torch and hauled the rear half out. The front half was left behind to be recovered during a follow-up trip, but someone pushed it back down the side of the hill down into a steep ravine before the group could get back up there for it.
It took a long time before a large enough group was able to pull it back up to the road, but Toro finally got the job done last year during a large Rattlesnake Canyon trip when there was plenty of help on hand. Once up at the road, we dragged it a few hundred feet to a turnout where it won't impede traffic, and it's sat there ever since. The next step is to get it on to a trailer and haul it a few miles down the road to an area where people will actually come pick up scrap. If we don't get it out of there soon enough, eventually some jack-hole will come push it down the side again, making it even harder to recover.
The San Bernardino National Forest has a bunch of equipment available for use as part of the adopt a trail program. Does anyone know if they have a trailer that we can use to haul this thing down the hill? (Celt? Motorpig?) If not, maybe I can rent something from U-Haul or something. The only trouble with U-Haul is the risk of having to pay a bunch of money if the trailer gets dented or scratched or something.
