Just wanted to extend the invitation to everyone here.

There's a thread up on 4x4wire on a trip this sunday in Julian:

"meet up in Julian and we can take a day trip through the badlands, down Diablo Dropoff, and end up in Fish Creek. No mods are needed for that run."

This is geared for stockers and noobs like myself who want to start gently before going crazy w/ the full body carnage!

Hope you guys join us!

Looks like tentative time will be 8am at a gas station.


"You will go through the mountains, past Lake Cuyamaca and then into Julian. Make a left into town and you will see the gas station. I think on the corner there is a dirt area we can all meet at. We are meeting at 8 so you guys will need to leave pretty early. "

For more details, check out the thread and reply there

Looking forward to meeting all of ya!

man... if i only had this sunday off i coulda made it

well... my truck is only 2WD.... so i couldnt do much

 

i've read that 2wd should be able to make it thru the trails. You just have to be careful on your line and you'd make it thru.

 

i'm trying to get sunday off... i wanna go!!

is there anybody here from the Orange county area.. specificly fountain valley... huntington beach, etc? we could meet up first and then cruise over there together.

I have a 4x2... i would love to go! I've never been on ANY trail.. and i dont think my truck has either.

 

I'm off the 605/60. if you're going, we can meet up somewhere.

I'm trying to get all the LA/OC members to meet up somewhere before we get into SD county so hopefully we'll get a pretty good turnout so we can convoy down together!

 

You will make it in 2wd. It may be a challenge on just a couple areas. Just air down and keep moving.

If you are coming you will need to leave pretty early Sunday morning to get to Julian by 8.

 

man.. how far away is this thing!!?!?

does anybody have an address i can mapquest my house to the place?

thanks

 

Just type in Julian, CA. There is 1 gas station on the east side of town. I am driving a gold 1995 Runner and will be getting ready to play.

Bring lunch, water, good tires, CB or FRS radios if you have them, We will have a good time.

 

i got lots of stuff to bring.. tool kits, air pump, power inverter, blender (powered by power inverter )

 

Here is some info on where we are going.

This is "Diablo Dropoff" the hardest part of the trip

I dont think i'll be able to go now my parents will be out of state (yes im only 17) and they dont want me going way over there if they're out of state. dammn.. that looks like so much fun!

 

L33T35T 4Runner...

I'm on the same boat as u...


I'm tempted to go, just gotta ask the significant other if its ok.

 

I guess theres an up side to this.. if i dont get to go. that means i have the house to myself for the weekend...

here come the girls!!! lol

 

leetest/dragonbud:

don't worry, there will be more trail runs like this for beginners. if you're more adventurous, u can try the trail run for feb 22. But i doubt a 2wd will make it tho ...

need not worry, more events will come by especially during the summer

 

sounds sweeeeeet, i have to check my schedule to make sure.

i live in lakewood ca. (long beach are) , 605 / 91 freeways
so would be interested in getting a convoy to go......its close to huntington beach only 20 minutes for who ever said they lived by there and wanted to convoy,,,let me know

check out the other post for the 22 of feburary me and my buddy are going to hungry valley in gorman ca (60 miles north of los angeles) should be some awesome riding also....come on and join the trip, i know you all want to!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I doubt the Julian gas station will be open, and there is no gas until we get back to Julian Sun afternoon. MAKE SURE YOU FILL UP!!!

I have made copies of maps for people. I have 20 copies now, but will make more if it looks like I will need it.

Looks like you guys from up north have a good plan. Give yourself a little extra time for the mountain driving up to Julian.

Meeting place in Julian is the gas station. There is no parking by the Julian Cafe. There is a dirt area just to the side of the gas station.


ATTENTION--IF FOR SOME REASON YOU ARE LATE AND MISS US. CONTINUE DOWN 78 TO THE DESERT FLOOR, TURN RIGHT ON S2 AND FOLLOW DOWN TO THE AIRPORT TURNOFF. YOU CAN WAIT THERE AND WE WILL PASS YOU BEFORE GOING INTO THE MAIN PART OF THE TRIP. JUST WATCH FOR A BUNCH OF DUSTY TOYOTAS COMING DOWN S2.
