It's been a little while since we've all been together for a group run. This run has a little bit of something for everyone. It's 2WD friendly with some steep 4WD obstacle off shoots. We went up to Beeks during the last Santiago Peak run, and it was a blast. We only went in one direction, and out through an exit by Corona. That exit has since been closed to public use. I've been wanting to do this run in both directions anyways. We'll get to do all the obstacles twice ;D

Lets meet in the parking lot behind Cook's Corner Bar, off of Santiago Canyon Rd. We'll end up back at Cooks Corner, where we can have some post run livashuns.

I'll have just gotten back from camping two weeks prior and a mini 4 date tour the weekend before... why would I not want to go wheeling!?

OP Updated

Sounds like a good run, I fly back from San Jose at 8 that morning though. Have fun out there!
-
Count me as "Probably"
I enjoyed the Father's Day run and would love to hit those trails now that my Fronty has some lift and new suspension!
-
Can't wait for this run! I haven't been out with you guys in much too long >.<
I'll probably have one or two co pilots along. Promises to be an awesome day! Taking off to backpack into the Golden Trout Wilderness just past Kernville tonight, playing gigs next weekend, end the month with an SCCX run. This August rules ;D

I'm in the Rochester area that week. Have a great time.

So do we have any new updates? I think the exit is the Indian truck trail if I'm not mistaken and it's a hell of a drive back to cooks.. Am I right?

No, you pretty much go up through Silverado Canyon and then turn around and go back down it after Beek's Place. The Indian truck trail would dump you out by the 15, so yeah that would be quite a drive to cooks ahaha.

I won't be able to attend this xcursion as I already have camping plans, BUT I did a little prerun for you guys. Sort of. We headed up to Santiago Peak via Maple Springs. Nice drive.
I brought a bunch of water as I knew it was going to be hot. I ended up handing out water to 8 mountain bikers and 3 hikers. They had all run completely out. Paying it forward.
Anyways, here are some pics from today. The X did great even with 35psi in the tires. DOH I knew I forgot to do something

Silverado Canyon (AKA Maple Springs Road) to the North Main Divide, you take the North Main Divide towards the 91 until you reach Beek's Place.

Sorry to say I have to bow out for this trip - my vocalist is hosting a group heading north near Kernville for camping. Which will also be awesome, but I must join in on an Xcursion soon! It's been too long.
-
I might be a maybe. Just have to make sure I have gas money for extras after the bills are paid. Ill have an update Friday. If late notice isn't allowed for the group ill sit this one out.

-
I don't think ill be able to make it. Not enough funds for bills and gas. I also don't have have tow points on front and back of my truck. Don't want to hold you guys up because I don't have the right equipment. Maybe the next run
-
Well, another great run in the books for SCCX. We had a good turn out of rigs with a nice combination of Frontys and Xterras. The run itself was a blast. The trail up to Beeks Place offered up a little something for everyone. We had the usual trail hiccups like a flat tire and blown fuse. We even almost had pull Roberts Fronty out a sticky situation, but with a little bit of guidance from Clint and Alicia, and some nice maneuvering, Robert managed to unstick himself.
Here are some of my pics...

It was amazing what Robert made his 2WD, 4 Banger, do on the trail. This one was a little too steep and a little too loose.
