I love this partnership. I just got a brand new high end shed and it is amazing. Way bettter than I ever expected and they installed within a week. Fast turn around time and great craftmanship.
Ask for Roberto Vasquez to get the best price possible. You must ask for Roberto. He is at the Riverside Tuff Shed location. I love this partnership. I do not receive anything for this. I got a big deal on mine. I want to promote them cause they are high end sheds for killer price. Again ask for Roberto Vasquez.

Hey! Long time local here. Love your channel and what you fo for the community. Was talking to my friend that owns Big Bear Mountain Brewery and think y'all should link up. They have amazing food and friendly atmosphere. I think yall should definitely meet. Come in and ask for Rick Snow.
So cool!
Hey trail that would be great and you know what I’ve been there a few times, and I loved that avocado bombss just absolutely awesome. I think that’s what they are called.
Yeah, that would be great
Thank you for your kind words I appreciate it
@@SHEEPHORNsummerway cool for sure
@bigbearweatherandmore6621 that's the one in the village this one is just after the snowplay coaster place. The yellow building.
@@Trail_mama ohhhhhh yes OK I know which one you’re talking about for sure right there on the corner of Temple
I know exactly which one you’re talking about I have to admit I’ve never been in there. I think the main reason is because I’m 10 1/2 years sober from alcohol so I try not to put myself in that situation but I’m well beyond being a risk anymore. I’m very confident and comfortable in my own skin now so I know I wouldn’t have to drink, but if this is something you’re suggesting, I will look into it for sure. I really want a good place for the people who can drink responsibly to go enjoy themselves.
Yes snow great .Hava a good day .Superbawl a good Party.Hier uit Nederland s zijn we Feijenoord supporters.Groeten stay safe and healthy you and your women.
God bless you Peter very nice to hear from my brother you are my brother
Unfortunately, for me over the past many years, I’ve gotten really sick and tired of the NFL and all these entitled spoiled rich little brats complaining about everything. Hahahaha. I used to be a big NFL fan but actually college football was my favorite. I used to go to a lot of college football games and also I guess the real excuses I don’t have much time anymore. I wish I could just sit down and enjoy the game but because of my job it’s really difficult.
Peter, you take care of my brother and I hope you have a great time watching the game everybody else that I know will be watching the game but right now I’m actually working or honestly I would be watching the game I just don’t like to see the most privileged, entitled people complaining about everything if I was in their position, I would be the most grateful person that this world has ever seen
But unfortunately, I’m 5’6” tall and not in good shape and I could never be an NFL player
I've been up 18 and 330 but never this way. What a beautiful drive. And then you said that you have the windows down and the heater blasting...I remember that is how we use to cruise "E" street back in the day. What a great memory you sparked in my mind 🎉🎉. If you were going to get an award for Good Will Ambassador you definitely would have my vote.
Wow Mary thank you. You are so darn nice to me thank you it’s really easy to be nice and because this is a passion of mine it’s even easier to do what I do.
You were right... Much more chill.... And breath takingly beautiful. Ty for another wonderful video. 💕
You are very welcome. It’s my pleasure I love doing this.
This is so cool! I'm watching this on my PC that's plugged into my sound system and a "medium size" (55in.) wide screen TV! My wife and I are having dinner and getting a GUIDED TOUR up the mountain from Big Bear Weather and More! Life is good!! 😄
Thanks for this video. Just found it now accidentally. I am playing it at the slowest speed to enjoy the drive as I am restricted at home to take care of a family member. Appreciate your effort.
Hey there Afshan. First of all let me say I really appreciate you watching the channel. It makes me feel really good. I never expected this channel to get anywhere like this so thank you and I really hope you stick around for a long time to come and join the family we have here. When we do these live feeds during the storms, there’s so many cool people, everyone is really supportive of each other. We talk about everything it’s just a cool place to be with a bunch of really cool people.
So again, thank you very much and I wish you the best with the restrictions you’re going through. Of course my mind goes all over the place wondering what’s going on. My older brother was restricted with an ankle bracelet for a while and trust me I don’t pass any judgment I’ve been through it before , I just hope you get through whatever you’re going through. And thanks again for watching my bro. You take care and have a kick ass rest of your day.
Nikk...very nice approach on this one. The start on Hwy 38 & the view looked terrific!🙏
Hey Bob, thanks for saying that man really turned out to be a beautiful video didn’t it?
We have enjoyed watching for over a year. We grew up in the snow belt. Always use rainy. Thankyou for the snow . None here in NC for 3 years now
Hey Sandra, thank you so much for watching for that long. I really hope you and your family hoping your family enjoys it as well but I really hope you continue to hang out with us and be a support for this little channel. I really do appreciate the loving support.
I got really lucky when I was working in North Carolina on one of the trips I went out there. We got snow out there and it was so beautiful. I think I already mentioned that.
What a beautiful drive! I loved driving up that way when I lived in SoCal. Thanks for the memories Nikk!! 👍🏻❤️
It is absolutely my honor. Thank you for enjoying it and thank you for allowing me to bring some nostalgia into your heart.
Beautiful drive, Nikk. Road was very clear of snow, for the most part. Caltrans did a great job!! Thank you for showing everyone how good 38 is for safe travelling.
You’re welcome Fran. Hopefully it makes a lot of people want to come up knowing that it’s not too bad.
OKOK THANK YOU I WILL STAY TUNED!!!
@@Eden.K1m you are welcome Eden. It’s my pleasure
After the real cold front passed through this area (maybe on Thursday) it dropped the temps about 5-10 degrees so that kept the snow from melting. Thank goodness for that.
Jeffe I was really glad about that as well. It kept all that beautiful snow in the trees, and it was just an amazing cruise through the mountains. Hope you’re having a good day my friend.
I cant believe the snow is still hanging on the trees! ill be back up Monday or Tuesday!!
It is beautiful isn’t it dude but I think starting a little bit today and a lot more tomorrow that snowing. The trees is going to be coming down quickly.
okok thank you so much! will ask for more questions if i have more!
@@Eden.K1m I will be here for you if you need me my friend you’re very welcome
Great video Nikk! Thanks for taking that long drive to show us the best way to get up the Mountain. I agree with you that the 38 is the best way to get up there.
Thank you engineer it’s good to hear from you. It’s my favorite route. It grew on me when I moved to this mountain range. I always would’ve preferred Highway 18 but now this is my favorite route into Big Bear.
Not a bad drive! I will definitely be taking 38 on the way up.
Thank you!
Hey David, you won’t be disappointed it was really gorgeous. Just be safe and realize in the next couple days days the temperatures are going to get above freezing, and the snow is gonna start melting into the street and refreezing so just be extra cautious.
Thank you Nick for making these videos! The 38 is my favorite way up. Takes you way up high in elevation, and there aren't as many cars sense the road is longer, so less needing to take turn outs, and not as many on-coming cars.
You’re welcome dude.
Thanks man ,that brought back alot of memories!
Michael, it’s my pleasure bro this is why I moved to Big Bear because of my family memories when I was younger in Lake arrowhead and coming to ski in this town so trust me that’s why I started this channel was for the nostalgia
Thank you Nikk for capturing one of my favorite drives on earth ! We just came down the mountain on the 38 after a few days in the BB winter wonderland. I highly encourage you all to make the trip up to see this snow if possible !! I’m so happy to save this video so I can remember the drive when I am missing BB.
Ditto! Love this post!!!!
Wow, that makes me feel so good. I am so happy that I did this. These are the feelings that I want to bring into peoples hearts, so thank you for your kind words I appreciate that and I hope just like you do that. Everybody comes up here to see how beautiful this place is right now.
@@SHEEPHORNsummer absolutely
OMG!! That mountain view at the beginning makes for a Beautiful Screensaver THANKS ❤ Nice drive up amazing views Thank you Nikk that was cool!! 👍🤗👍
Hahaha... 🤣😂we both missed "first"
You’re welcome, G. it really is beautiful. I bet today it looks even better because there’s not a cloud in the sky.
@@misspattifromcali.6955hahahaha
😂😂😂 Im at mt brach house on vacation just waitvuntil i get back LOL LOL LOL 🤣🤣🤣Just kidding, I like to share 😊😇😊@@misspattifromcali.6955
That was fun and Beautiful too! Thanks Nikk for doing these videos and all the insider info. I spent a lot of time at my grandparent's cabin in Fawnskin when I was a kid. We always came up 18, but this seems so much easier. Thanks again.
Hey Linda, how are you? We took 18 all the time but it’s because my mom had a house in Lake arrowhead so we took 18 from San Bernardino. I never went up 330 until later on in life because I never had anything in Big Bear other than skiing so we would go up 18 to our house in Lake arrowhead and then drive from Lake arrowhead to go skiing. And then I really never went up Highway 38 and now that I’ve been living here I love Highway 38. It is for me the most beautiful route driving through a beautiful mountain range.
Thanks Nikk!
This video is so helpful for our drive in 2 weeks. You are awesome!
Just me it’s my pleasure and by the time you get here I’ll have a bunch more videos because we have a lot of storms coming a week from today so it’ll give you a better perspective of the closer we get on what to expect and I’ll probably take these mountain drives again for you guys
Many thanks for the vid Nikk, much love from Toledo. Dude, it looks like a snow fjord in some parts. Amazing scenery!!!
Nate thanks bro. I was just watching something on TV and it about Toledo. Berry cool Nate bro.
Thanks for being here with me brother Nate. I enjoying making these videos. Never knew anyone would like these videos. Just so cool.
Anyway I hope you weekend ends swell and I’ll chat with you later Nate Dogg
Beautiful!!! That’s is my route up to Big Bear ever time, I Love it.
Hey Carl, I’m telling you this is my favorite route because of the beauty and it just feels like you’re driving through a much bigger mountain range. I love it.
Yup, for sure!!!
@@carllarez2656 👊
Beautiful drive Nikk! Thanks
Always a pleasure Czar
Stunning Nikk! In the 32 years that we had our cabin in Big Bear, I could probably count on one hand combined, the times we went up the hill on 18, 330/18, and through Lucerne Valley. HWY. 38 always…Scenic and beautiful! Would just about every time stop at Staffords fruit and vegetable stand in Mentone. Made my first purchase this morning of apparel at Big Bear Weather and more…the first of many!
@ last chance, this is a great post! When our boys were little, this was our same route, and we stopped at the same fruit stand! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Haha yessssss last chance. That’s awesome. I hope you love it. I really hope you love it. I am so proud that folks wanna help support the brand it makes me incredibly proud.
And I don’t know the name of the fruit stand, but I think I know exactly which one you’re talking about I’ve been there before as well but thank you last chance I really appreciate your support dude I really do
@@SHEEPHORNsummer I didn’t realize how long that stand has been there. It’s pretty awesome and when we get storms like this, I bet that fruit stand does incredibly well at least I hope so.
Hi Nikk, that road is full of snow on the sides and Trees. Good drive.
Wow that's a lot of snow bro. This twist and turn road is a lot like the road from Bakersfield to lake Isabella. Except hardly any snow if any at all. 😁
I’m telling you it was just so beautiful. I was concerned before I got there that there was gonna be way too much snow in the roads were gonna be horrible but it was the complete opposite on the roads. it was really nice to see it like this to give a lot of people that mental peace of mind
Thank you very much
you did a great job
Appreciated 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Kazemi. It is such a joy, especially when I receive comments like this. Thank you very much. I hope you have a great rest your day.
another great video. thanks for the updates buddy.
I appreciate that. Thank you and you are so very welcome.
This is on heck of a drive and so beautiful! Outstanding, Nikk! Thank you!
#epicweathercoverage
#bigbearweatherandMORE 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you my good buddy that was a really nice drive. I really enjoyed it.
Thank you Nick for doing the drive up the 38
You are very very welcome my friend.
Beautiful drive amigo. Thanks for sharing it
Sup Kosmo. You’re welcome. I’m really glad people are enjoying these and I think during these bigger storms I’ll do this same drive up and down the mountain because it looks like it’s gonna be something valuable for people.
@@bigbearweatherandmore6621 as long as it’s safe for you to do, then yeah, it’d be invaluable to have an eyes-on knowledge of the realtime (or close to) road conditions. Think i saw ppl having to do a 180° at the snow-line realizing too late that they didn’t have chains…if they’d only been watching
Big Bear Weather & More it could’ve been avoided! 😂
@@kosmokatinperson8835 see that’s another great reason for people to watch the channel because it could save them a lot of time and effort which all equals money. I appreciate that Kosmo
Nikki is great .Snow .We love it tho see
groeten uit Nederland
Your great Peter. Hello form SoCal
Lovely drive. Watch for falling rocks.
Amen to that one Juney
Amazing video Nikk! Great job!
Hey thank you Luke I appreciate that man. I just hope it all allows people to really see that it’s not as bad as they think on the roads at least right now so they can come up and enjoy the beauty.
No chains required brother ❓🤔😮 Those visuals are gorgeous.
No chains are required. I went through a checkpoint on this drive at Angeles Oaks. I don’t know if they are still required. I would think maybe they still are but I’m wondering how much longer they’re going to enforce it
I'll always support my best bro! I love you so much and I'm loving this pure heaven so much!!! We need more haha and looking forward to more lives too to talk good. NEVER stop enjoying this beauty!! It's tracksuit time!
Tracksuit and cigars bro it definitely is.
@@bigbearweatherandmore6621 Hope the diet and everything is going well. Don't forget to go on hikes in this beaming beauty! Warm up and go for it! As others said, I love the snow in the trees!!
@@Omarrr146 haha dude for this past week I’ve messed up quite a bit. I even had some McDonald’s for the first time in over three months, so I need to jump back on the wagon because I was so feeling guilty about that.
Yeah, once this next storm comes in a week I’ll put some more live feeds up. It’s pretty interesting. Some people have been telling me that it’s been difficult for them to not have the live feed and they really want me to maybe have a live feed regularly with or without snow and that’s pretty cool to hear.
@@bigbearweatherandmore6621 Oh no! Yeah definitely steeeer cleaar of McDsss!! Stickkkk with the diet and get back on track my best bro!! I know you will. As for regular live feeds, it's a great idea! It gets us connected and we can engage much more easily and have more in depthtt moments! You should definitely do it!! We all love you and want to be up there with you!!
@@Omarrr146 well you know I love y’all, so it would be a good thing. I just gotta figure out how to do it because obviously I don’t want it 24 hours obviously during the storms I’m happy to do that but I know my wife is a bit of a private person and I get it I don’t blame her but she’s OK with doing the extra life seats which is pretty great but again I have to figure out how I can do it where my wife and I can sometimes sign out have to live still going. Maybe the whole mute thing will be a benefit and then when we want to hop in and say hello, we can do that. I’m probably gonna be doing that a lot, butthat’s pretty cool a lot of people really enjoyed it
How gorgeous that drive must of been. Helped your beautiful wife today. She’s very sweet.
Haha. Very cool Julie. I’m usually in there really late about 20 minutes before you guys close but I’m glad you guys got to chat a little bit today
@@bigbearweatherandmore6621 It was very nice. See u soon at Vons.
@@juliebailey9074 see ya Vons Julie
Ya, Nikk, the snow line is really low on that road!
Isn’t that awesome? I really really like seeing it like that. As a kid when we used to drive up the other way, I would get really sad as we’re driving and driving and driving and I’m not seeing any snow and then near the top. I’d start seeing snow, butshortly after that it was always a lot more snow so being able to see it from a very low level is really awesome and I know it’s gonna make a lot of the other kids driving up the mountain with their parents feel good
Defo better than google street view!
Hahaha. You absolutely rock for saying that thank you.
Nikk, this is the absolute beauty of your channel!
We read the comments on here from all your subscribers and it is so great to see so many people from years ago weighing-in and experiencing the mountain in a whole new way!
You’ve really made a difference on the mountain top and all of us are so appreciative! This channel is going to soar to great heights-great mountaintop heights…..pun intended! 🎉 ❤ 😮 🏔️ 🪵 ⛷️ ❄️ 🏂 🌲 🚤 🛶
Haha thank you I appreciate that. It’s surprises me where this channel is going. This was never expected or anticipated or even imagined. I never thought my passion would turn into something it’s pretty remarkable. It makes me very happy and I’m excited to grow with everybody here and see where this goes.
Hi I love your videos! Do you take people up to Big Bear mountain from Highland? Big Bear Chamber of commerce should hire you as the town ambassador and pay you to give people guided tours up and down the mountain. 😊
Hey Wilson. That would be a really cool thing to do. I’ve actually thought of starting some sort of a service to drive people up the mountain who are too afraid to, but I just haven’t gotten to that point, but I thank you for your kind words that really feels good. It shows me that I’m doing a good job representing this town.
This is what I'm talking about !!!!
Coo * K * A * Doodle * Do
Hahahah
OOh so give or take if my friends and I go maybe late december we would see good snow?
@@Eden.K1m there is a really good chance yes and I think more often than not for the decade that I’ve lived here. I think we’ve had snow snow on Christmas Day so it’s been pretty amazing Christmases.
Fantastic drive up, Nikk. Just curious, do you have your phone clipped into a stand or are you holding it the entire drive? Thanks for all the snow videos. 😊😊😊
Hey my good buddy it’s a mixture of both unfortunately, my gimbal that I bought for the car don’t keep my really heavy cameras steady, which is kind of a bummer
NEW QUESTION HAS RISEN!!! ok so i think we might go mid december, probably before christmas maybe somewhere between dec 10 to 20, would there be snow during that time?
Hey Eden. I wish I would’ve seen your comment earlier, my friend I apologize. I try to respond to everybody as fast as possible so I feel really bad about this.
Yes, definitely there’s a good chance for snow between December 10 and December 20 just stay tuned for my videos. I record every event and I tell you guys when we are expecting snow and I would love to have you here, my friend.
Take care Seren and have a great weekend.
Hi! I wanted to ask since I don't go to Big Bear that often. But my friends and I were planning to go to Big Bear and rent an airbnb and all that and wanted to know if the snow comes in maybe mid december to early january. Maybe looks as pretty as this.
Or more like... Latest is mid january, would there be like a decent amount of snow?
@@Eden.K1m hey Eden. My friend I have good news for you whenever we even get just a couple inches of snow. It transforms everything around here but if we get at least a half a foot of snow, it’s gonna look like the thumbnail you’re gonna be blown away.
And other news is, we can even get snow this next month in October. It happens often, but the snow really starts to fly in November. I remember a few thanksgivings back we got about 3 feet of snow on Thanksgiving, but November is when it really starts to fly and late December through January is typically the snowiest time , especially in the 10 years that I’ve been here
You’re getting closer to your journey don’t hesitate to ask me any questions. I’d like to make sure you have a great time when you’re here.
PS. I don’t get notified when someone responds to my response to their original comment. My whole point is if you want to get back to me on this just leave me a brand new comment and I will know who you are.
What time did you start your drive up? The wife and i did it about 3 weeks ago. It was nice, went to the village.
liked
You rock, Bobby thank you
I have ANOTHER question lol uh do your like water pipes freeze up there or no? Cuz like that would be such a pain
Yes, they definitely can and they do. I’ve been fortunate in the nine years. I’ve lived here that hours have not frozen or at least exploded, but they have been frozen when we got really cold I won’t be able to turn on my water which always worries me when it gets to that point. But we do the best we can keep the water running every now and again when it gets really cold just to try to avoid any freezing but it’s tough.
Hello. We are heading up to big bear next week Friday for snowboarding. Where is the best place for snow chains at the bottom of the hill? Or does the rental car come with chains? Excited to head up there!!! Thank you.
Hey haagendaz
So that’s a really good question I don’t know if there’s necessarily a best place to get them but I would try to get them not right at the bottom of the mountain because they’re gonna charge a premium if you can get them maybe in Redlands or Mentone or one of those areas but not at the very bottom of the mountain
When it comes to places to get them, I don’t End Of never heard of anyone. That’s better than the other. Usually a big auto supply store will be good. I wish I had a better answer for you with that one.
And I’ve never heard of rental cars giving people tire chains and honestly I don’t think they allow it only because it’s a high risk situation for them but I’m not 100% sure of that either but I can almost be certain that they don’t have tire chains in the rentals
Again, you kind of stumped me again But get back to me if you want me to go a little more deeper with it, but this is pretty much as much as I know
I just hope you guys have a kick ass time on the slopes
PS. Next Friday you’re almost guaranteed not gonna need tire chains to get up here it’s gonna be fine but then Saturday we get some more weather coming in.
@@bigbearweatherandmore6621 Thank you. That helps a lot. We are coming from Hawaii. Majority have never experienced snow so it will be an amazing experience. We are traveling with kids and have some drivers that have never driven on icy roads. Which route is the safest? Thank you again for answering my questions and can’t wait to experience big bear!
@@haagendaz8727 well, I hope you have a safe trip my friend I used to live in Hawaii also and one of the years I lived there we went up to the top. I can’t remember if if was Mauna Kea or Mauna Loa and there was snow. Some my friends who who were raised there would go up a bit to the snow when there was snow on top. Which island you come from? I miss living there
@@bigbearweatherandmore6621 Most of us are coming from Kauai and some from Oahu. No snow where we are lol.
@@haagendaz8727 nice bro. I have family from your island. The Lomma family.
I miss it bro. Be safe and have fun when you get to the mainland.
After the first part of the storm melted the snow, how much snow did we we end up getting?
A good question dude it looks like in my area about 2 feet of snow or close to it. Some parts of town got about 3 1/2 feet of snow the very upper portions but I think the average was about 18 inches to 2 feet of snow.
👍
Thank you John, my brother
Do you avoid the ski resorts going this route.
Distant second 🤣☺🤣😂
Hahaha
👍👍👍
Only down side is less snow.
Sup wizz agreed
Is necesary to have chains on the tires?
Yes, according to Caltrans I went through a chain checkpoint on this drive once I entered the town called Angeles Oaks
Again, by me again. 😆 🤣 go left next time.
Hahaha. OK so when you say go left where are you talking about? Let me know because maybe next time I do this I can hit you up real quick and you can come out and just say what’s up that would be cool.
@bigbearweatherandmore6621 left on 38 like your going back down to redlands
@@ElDrewski so left on 38 like I’m going back down to Redlands so Andrew I’m still a little bit confused so if I’m going down 38 I’m on 38 is there another part of 38 that makes a left-hand turn or are you talking about turning on Bryant or kind of at the bottom of the hill in the Mentone area or do I turn left on Orange? Let me know bro because I really would swing by and meet up with you just to say what’s up. I’ve always wanted to meet my brother Andrew.
I’m sure when you respond I’m gonna feel like a total dumbass because I know I’m not the brightest guy out there, so I’m sure you’re explanation of where you’re at is articulable but for me things are difficult lol
@bigbearweatherandmore6621 coming from yucaipa you make a left on 38. I'm by the circle k off of crafton and hiway 38
@@ElDrewski no way bro so I literally do drive right by you every time I go up and down that road OK cool thanks for letting me know bro
Did you need chains even if you have awd?
I had the same question... It suppose that the control said R2 and it allow to go up if you have AWD or 4WD car.
AWD vehicles need to carry chains but don’t have to have them on. We just got back from being in BB for a few days - it is absolutely beautiful right now, don’t miss it !
R1, R2, and R3 will truly determine what you need to do.
That’s a really good question so as far as Caltrans is concerned, yes you do on this drive that I made. However, if you have all-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive with snow tires, then you don’t need tire chains but if you don’t have the snow tires, you do need tire chains.

Yes R2 if you have snow tires with all-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive, then no, you do not need tire chains but if you don’t have snow specific tires, they are going to make you put on tire chains

Did u have to put chains on ur car?
Good place to go to at big bear not familiar with the location ?Btw No kids .Just 4 Adults .
OK my brother sorry for the late response. Let me ask you are you looking for places to hang out or hotels to stay at get back to me I’ll be checking more frequently I had to catch up on a little bit of sleep, so that’s why it took so long to get back to you, but if it’s hotels, I would suggest the Robinhood Resort the best western, sessions, retreat, and hotel And we do have an Airbnb really close to Bear Mountain affiliated with the channel and everybody loves it so you can always see if that’s available as well
For restaurants, I suggest Fire Rock in the village, the Himalayan, the crêpe café, The Hacienda and for a finer dining experience, PEPPERCORN grille.
Mountain Munchies is pretty darn good as well and for pizza I prefer Village pizza but that is as subjective as it gets because I could talk to five other people right now and they would all have a different opinion of pizza places up here
It would make your videos more enjoyable if you left more space between the vehicle in front of you la 21:42 ❤❤g back so we don't have to look at them especially when you're behind the snow plows any other Large truck.
Well, I think for every 10 miles an hour it’s a Carling you’re supposed to keep between and I think at that point we were maybe going 20 miles an hour of course if conditions are worse, you stretch that out further
Thanks for the advice I’ll take in consideration
Hey Nikki can u help or can anyone pls help me guide me as in maybe send me a address I can find my way from there I just want to get to that entrance of the highway I don’t want to go all the way up I just want to stop by there for a small amount of time I trying going but before I even go to see the snow there was cal trans checking for chains some pls help my first time going to see the snow and I live in California 😂
See if you can ask Siri or ask your phone to take you to lagonia Street and Bryant cross streets and that’s either considered Mentone or Yucaipa
That’ll take you right there
Or something very very simple is take the 10 freeway until you get to Orange Avenue in Redlands once you’re on Orange Avenue you’re gonna want to head the direction of the mountains I’m assuming you’re probably coming from the LA or RIVERSIDE area so if you’re coming from that side when you get off on Orange Avenue you’re gonna make a left-hand turn And then a right hand turn on Lagonia stay on this road and this road will turn into highway 38
I have a feeling maybe I didn’t make much sense so if you didn’t get it, please contact me again and I’ll try to figure out a different way to explain it
