Title: Father's Day Run to Santiago Peak - June, 15
Post by: HEVAK on May 01, 2013, 08:03:56 PM: I can't think of a better way to celebrate Father's Day(actually the day before) than to run up to Santiago Peak in the Cleveland National Forest with a bunch of Xterra's. This is a 2W friendly run, with a couple of fun obstacle spots, to the top of Orange County. Once we get to the Peak, we can eat lunch, take some photo's, and then head to down to Cook's Corner for the beverage of your choice.

Post by: HEVAK on May 07, 2013, 04:39:26 PM: Lovin all the new blood!! This is a great group of Xterra loving off roaders, and it's only getting better. It's the people on this forum that make it so inviting and fun. I'm glad to see some fresh enthusiasm brewing.
Title: Re: Father's Day Run to Santiago Peak - June, 15
Post by: Adio. on May 07, 2013, 06:16:14 PM: I'll definitely have my 2in suspension lift done before this! Hopefully I'll get a set of those white knuckle sliders soon.

edit: Oh and I'll have a CB radio too! Ahaha my FRS radio died within like 2 hours the first time using it yesterday. Such a pain.

And definitely Hevak! Although this forum doesn't have the numbers that other Xterra forums do, I've found it to be way more helpful. Great group here.

It's a great trail for all the new OC guys to meet, and fun for anyone who want's to get their rig dirty!
Sadly, I will be out of town, but looks like you already got a great group so far.

I climb up to Beek's Place on my fatbike using Blackstar Canyon Road as a means to get up there. (closed to vehicles) It's really neat up there!

And if you're feeling really adventurous you can go up to the golf ball

(http://imageshack.us/a/img707/2343/img2502yj.jpg)

I would love to go visit Beek's by truck. Much less physical effort! Is the route planned S trim 4x4 stock friendly? I'd love to start getting involved in the Xcursions!

That would work...but try to save the receipt.

For that price you could get a Midland CB to mount in your center console as well as a nice Firestik and mount for your rig through Amazon.

HEVAK
I could also use your help with the SWR meter, I stripped my firestix on the last run I was on because I only hand tighted it down, being lazy, instead of wrenching it like you are supposed to. So now I have a quick disconnect (still lazy) but hopefully won't have the problem of stripping again.

Welcome!! This is the perfect 1st trail for your X. You will not need an adventure pass for this run. However, some kind of communication, CB or FRS, would be beneficial.

Some were taken while in motion, so between steering, shifting, and using the camera, weren't the best.

The rest I have no excuse if they are bad, operator error :p

Post by: HEVAK on June 16, 2013, 08:46:28 AM: Thank you all for making it such an enjoyable run. There was a little something for all of us. From first time trail rides, to big hill climbs, and a couple of puckering drops. We even had a chance to bust out the tools for a small trail side repair.

Here are a few choice shots:

I'm not totally sure if that was a helicopter landing pad or not ahaha but it's a random piece of asphalt that looks like one... So maybe.

Post by: SocalTerraX on June 16, 2013, 10:41:29 AM: Good run guys, thanks for the warm welcoming.
Already ran my rig through the frog wash once and it still needs another wash ;)
I was very happy with this trail for my Xs first real offroad experience. Now onto that mod list.

Looks like heftyworks sliders and a fuel tank skid, CB radio are in my near future.

Unfortunately, your pictures aren't showing up in your post. You should try Photobucket. Load your photos on Photobucket, then click on the IMG Code, which copies the code, and then use CTLR P to paste the code into your response.
