this is San Bernardino mountains, not San Gabriel mountains. and those trails are now burnt from the Line fire. glad you were able to enjoy, because we won’t be able too for a while now
Thanks for the correction! It’s such a shame it burned. I could tell it was dry and would easily catch fire when I was there. Hopefully it recovers quickly.
Yeah, I know, man. It’s a shame. Every Friday I’ve been going to San Gabriel looking for gold And doing light Fishing just exploring. Of the bridge fire. Whenever they open the roads, I’m going to check it out I’m glad I took pictures and enjoyed it. It would take years to come back. Sad!!
The memories you are creating for him are priceless. I instantly began counting down the hrs for my boy to get home. We have some memories to make while he cleans the garage for dad.
The "R" is for Redlands (where I live). That was the 7 Oaks Dam you saw down below. Much of the area you drove through was burned a couple weeks ago by the "Line Fire" which is still not fully contained. Running Springs and Angeles Oaks were evacuated. Route 330 that you mentioned is still closed due to fire damage to our guardrails (I work for Caltrans). Anyway, very enjoyable video, thank you.
My husband and I often take this trail. Unfortunately it has all been burned in the recent (still going) Line fire. Glad to see you were able to go before the fire. Such a beautiful trail.
@@doccameraman I tried to download the track but it wouldnt work. I know he's near the seven oaks dam at the start, Alder Creek Road most likely before crossing santa and river and heading to the lookout near there
So awesome that you have been talking the little one since a young age. We saw you at the SAVE Expo and he was having a blast driving his little blue tundra. Our society needs more dad's like you brother. Memories are core fuel on our son's development. Hope to see you in Arlington next month. Camp on
I'm from LA, have a Tundra 4x4 and have a little boy so I can really relate. Some other places to explore in the area: Big Bear, Idyllwild, Julian, Joshua Tree NP, Carrizo Plains, Kern River and Sequoia NP.
I can also vouch for these places! I also love the Sierras in general, its not much but theres one trail up by Virginia Lakes that is gorgeous, I dont know its name I just know how to get there😂 Anyways, sweet Tundra, and keep it up with the little one! Those will go on to be his favorite memories, I bet
The marine layer pushes to the mountains every day unless there is a high pressure system that gives us east winds. I’ve hang glided over those hills from launching at Crestline. I landed at a school behind my house in Redlands. Thanks for the videos, we enjoy them.
Toyotas make awesome 4x4 trucks! I had a Tacoma trd for over twenty years. Off road camping in the high Sierra with my family of four, II used for construction and my business hauling trailer loads of kayaks paddle boards and mountain bikes for my tour company, loved that truck! Have fun!
the trail up to where you camped is the City Creek trail, smack dab in the middle of the Line Fire, and the campsite was the lower eastern edge of the fire, and it continues up to Big Bear with several junctions to get there...looks like you filmed prior to the fire, I"m sure it looks very different right now 😞
Great video . . . Nice tundra !!! Now you need to add Rowher flats, Gorman, Cleghorn, Azusa Canyon OHV and maybe John Bull to your must go bucket list 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Most of the "smog" you see isn't, its moisture from the ocean/marine layer. Natives use to call the area "valley of the smoke" because of this. I grew up with 1st, 2nd and 3rd stage smog alerts in the 70's, today is nothing like back then.
Yes. My family moved to Southern California in the mid 1960s. In those days it was sometimes tough to see from one traffic light to the next from the smog. We came from Arizona and they would give the visibility distance in miles in the daily weather report. Imagine our surprise when we arrived in California and during the weather report they would say, "light to moderate eye irritation today." As you said the overall air quality is better now than it was back then even though there are millions more cars on the road. This is thanks to environmental regulations that mandated auto makers build cleaner running, more fuel efficient cars. And factories had to clean up what they had been previously belching out into the air.
@@RicardoRoams I grew up in the 60's here in LA, and as a kid I remember when we had those smog alerts. When it got bad enough, they would cancel recess and wouldn't let us go outside to play! It's so much better now.
@@joerghallbauer6595 , You are right. It is better now and that's because of environmental regulations. So when I hear people talking about rolling back on those regulations, I tell them if you want to see what life would be like without the EPA and regulations, try living in Beijing or Mexico City.
@@normanhill596actually it’s not, the university of Redlands created that R on the mountain. Has nothing to do with Rim of the World, Running Springs, or any mountainous region of the San Bernardino National Forest.
I used to trail run that steep portion you exited. From the bottom Jst past the fire tower to where it plateaus. Very steep. Good cardio workout for sure.
Fire permit for camp stoves is a self service thing online and print it out. As you know since posting your great video, fires are an issue. Thanks for being attentive to that.
The fire permit is a free online thing that takes something like 10 minutes to do, it's mostly to just inform people on what to have around when you have an open flame, since you know it burns very easily here and that trail currently is as well.
Looks like a fantastic time. I am always impressed by your abilities to make every situation workable. IF you make it to Sacramento, there are some great trails around here as well. Cheers.
You used to be able to reserve the Morton Peak lookout for camping. Unfortunately I don't think you can any more. I once spent a 4th of July night there, with several friends, after having ridden our bikes up there from Redlands. We spent the evening watching all the fireworks displays from the communities below going off in the distance.
The fire lookout you visited is within the area of the Line Fire that was raging 1-2 weeks ago. Hopefully it’s still standing! You had some luck with you in your timing for sure. Thanks for your usual first class video!
That's one of my regular mountain bike routes. I believe the R was initially put there by University of Redlands students decades ago. The area is now burned and closed due to the Line Fire.
I love the cinematography and the musical choices! I drove this fire road about 5 years ago and loved it. I’m bummed it burned. I’ll have to wait to do it again with my LC250. Thanks for the context!
Man your adventures are epic and your truck is epic keep up the good work , we love it !!! Taking a 1600 mile trip with my 24 tundra soon can’t wait ….
1 good thing about the West is a lot of it is owned by the BLM/Feds. Because it is, big parts are open to the public. Most of the land in the East, Midwest and the South is owned by someone so every where you go in the wild you're trespassing on someone's land. People get real upset if you're trespassing, not recommended.
In 2009 I twisted my knee and was going to be out for a few months... so I drove up into the river bed and camped at the same site you stayed at for a weekend... good memories but was a bit hard to get around with one leg working...
You mentioned having to use your brakes a lot on the downhill sections. If that’s an automatic transmission, you know you can downshift it to second or even first gear and really save your brakes.
"This road is just steep enough that I'm in first gear for engine braking... but it's not quite steep enough that I want to go into low range and just crawl"
Nice trip and video! Too bad so much has changed since your trip. But a good place left to go since these fires. Is Mt Pinos, and the Lockwood Valley area. Take the I-5 to Frazier Mountain Parkway in the Lebec area. There are other places West of the I-5 North of Castaic. Hungry Valley near Gorman is an offroad area with good camping. My wife and I have only had our 4wheel Campers Hawk model popup camper on a Ram 2500 4wd diesel pickup for a couple of years. We also tow our Jeep Wrangler for side adventures in the area we camp.
Dude that haze used to be a rust brown color. Like rusty tap water when you first turn on the tap. It is still a little brown but sooo much better that the 80s.
City Creek, 1N09 love this place. Proposed to my wife on it... aaaaaaannnnnnnddddd its all burnt down. FYI the area "hit by floods" was damaged by a VERY rare hurricane last year.
You picked a great spot! It’s such a shame basically my entire route has burned. Do you know if the lookout is ok? I remember reading about the hurricane! It makes sense now.
This is the sad reality of the San Bernardino national forest. 90% of fire roads are closed for some odd reason and there isn’t much over landing in this area unless you hike in
Hi Rob - great episode and great trip. It's interesting, how quiet and calm it gets outside the hotspots at your end of the water. Over here, everything is more dense, highly regulated (obviously) ... How's the Alucab doing? happy with it? br
First time watching, long time Californian. Do you show tracks of where you drove or do we just need to figure it out? Thanks! Great adventure. I look forward to watching more.
It is aForest Service road with a number (1N12). You can either branch off to the dam or veer right and end up in Angeles Oaks. Been up it many times. Certainly not a difficult trail if you pay attention to your driving. Damn shame about the fire!
That wasn't an intense meteor shower on the horizon. It's satellites. I'm pretty sure it's Starlink. I've captured that exact pattern many times now in multiple locations now throughout soCal.
on a side note... I just removed my hood mounted solar panel like yours... I hate to tell you what it did to the paint from all the trapped heat.... FYI. id go ahead and remove yours ASAP. im going to find high strength magnets with a soft cover and mount them like that for trips ill need them for... the full time install destroyed my paint in just a couple months.
Yeah I’m not a fan of that panel. Massively overpriced too. Thankfully mine is attached to my vinyl wrap, but I’ll have to rewrap the hood if I remove it.
10:59 That is cool but my friend it's not the light pollution as you say and don't show that obscured the MW. The Milky Way at this time of year is full of shy in the Northern Hemisphere and right at your back. So with little to show and rise, you didn't have the chance of seeing it because you didn't look in the right direction, rather just the opposite of where you should have been. Nevertheless, the Meteor shower was awesome without disturbing airliners, satellites, and space junks. Great channel that I discovered tonight. Needless to say, I subscribed and Liked it. Only wondering what kind of off-road/outdoor beast your mini-you! will be in 10 years or so. Stay safe and enjoy the beauty of the region.
I think you could get to the fire lookout directly without too many problems, and might be able to complete the fire lookout loop if you're very careful. I would not recommend taking it out to the place that I camped.
They’re very different. The aircraft are the long bright lines that go across the entire picture at the start and very end of the clip. The meteor shower is the rapid short streaks just above the horizon. If you’re watching on a phone it’s hard to see.
This video illustrates the fact that trying to enjoy nature and the outdoors in southern California is a complete waste of time. Regulations, permits, closures, and locked gates are an everyday thing. The government is acting like we are all a bunch of 9 yr-olds. A permit for a stove? That beautiful Tacoma belongs in Oregon or Idahoe.
Apparently the permit is free and is immediately approved. From what I'm told, it's not about giving permission, it's about keeping track of fires in the area.
