Lame title, this was NOT a hike!
This trail event is a 4x4 day. Holcomb Creek, travel East to West (going through the middle rock garden UP hill.)
Our group had a great time and this trail was easier than John Bull… so if you like this trail Big Bear has more to offer.
The “Playground” near West end was a nice treat, things to climb and grab snacks. Lots of big boulders and slabs to be creative.
The Gatekeepers on either end are useful… if your rig struggles then this trail may not be for you, bring friends is highly recommended!
John Bull requires more enjoyment of technical wheeling and experienced spotting a plus.
As far as trails go, this ranks second most challenging trail in Big Bear.
(Wasn’t a hike, need to change that option.)
