I'm taking a friend up to get addicted to wheeling. He's going to take his running boards off and have at it with a stock 4x4 4runner. I will be sticking with him and I expect we will be reversing out of alot of the turn offs as we pick our way through. That said its a good chance for some trucks and drivers without much battle experience to come out and put some dirt in the fender wells. Cleghorn is a socal wheeling staple and often a test ground for new modifications due to the dirt road to recover disabled vehicles. A good deal of us have honed our skills and vehicles there. You can just cruise a dirt road or hit up the ever changing/eroding truck trail that likes to bite those not giving her proper attention lol. The two completely different paths crisscross each other so its choose your own adventure...Very mild to pretty dang wild with everything in between ...
