So I think I remember hearing about some kinda trail that leaves fallbrook and goes to who knows where (dont remember that part) I know there was gates closed last time we tried doing that but would anyone be up for trying to do that run before the rain really starts coming in and makes it closed most of the time.
Update.
Meet place Albertsons parking lot off mission and ammunition road.
Date and time nov 3rd at 0900

I think Duffman and Lava were discussing it maaaaaaaany moons ago. Im down to roll if you figure it out.
-
are we leaving now? im packed and ready to go :D
-
Let's pick a day! Lava and I know the 'secret' trail, and it let's you out at a biker beer bar.
We go by a locked off area with some fun climes, we'll see if it's open or continue to Indian Truck Trail where Hevak found some fun.
-
I'm interested.
-
That's the one we took after duffman's mod day right? The southern main divide, dumps you right out on the ortega highway and then you can continue onto the north main divide if you want?
-
Lets try for Nov 3rd. Since AZ Ted may be able to join us since its shouldn't be too hard if he's able to bring his x and of not im sure there will be an open seat for him.
How does that sound

You guys should check out the Palomar Truck Trail...runs west up the back side of Palomar Mountain. Trail head starts off of Highway 79 near the Naval Warfare Survival Training Area.
Views of the observatory, a cool stone house, lots of signs warning of military training (saw a cool Blackhawk buzzing at about 200' off the deck last time), and of course over 40 geocaches along the route (if you are so inclined).
This is a very 2WD do-able run with lots of dust, trees, and rocks. A great day trip for all of you to check out.
-
You guys........
F' that! Your coming! Im bringing the whole crew with us.

We have another Usko on our hands...
-
I've done the Palomar trail, it was after a pretty heavy rainstorm and the trail was pretty beat up. Fun though
-
Im down for either one or both one time and the other a different time. I ain't picky.
And John ya need to come out with us.

It's much easier to just say "Gawd I miss your manliness John..."
I'll see what you hooligans conjure up and might just surprise you at a trail head near you... :)

This thread needs more chewdonkey

Which trail would have some more fun spots on it?

Palomar divide is even better when you start off with high point truck trail off the 79 just after the 371 turn off. As far as Fallbrook I don't know of many trails around there besides some roads that take you to the back side of camp Pendleton up by case springs. Nothing glamorous that I've found yet(not saying there isnt). Any time off the pavement I can get is a good time. Let's go explore!

Ive been itching to do the trail that goes down the back area of fallbrook that goes up to ortega hwy or that other way that is sometimes closed.
So lets try that one this time around.

Done! I'm in. Last time we met at the Albertson's parking lot, across from a shell gas station on S.mission and Amunition rd.
Some guys can poop out after stopping at Hell's Kitchen(on Ortega Hwy), while others can continue up the north divide toward Santiago peak and beyond. :o
-
If anyone is going to continue on the north divide towards santiago peak I'd be glad to meet them at that trail head and go from there.
-
I'm in! I didn't know there was a trail in the De Luz canyon area. I have been searching the map for ages!

Hence the term 'secret trail'. It's 2/3s dirt and 1/3 paved. No airing down needed until we cross Ortega Hwy.
We will turn off of De Luz just past the gourd farm.
I'm up for exploring the N. Devide road as well.
-
RB are ya gonna be our leader for this run ?

3rd won't work for me, I got that ridiculous Mojave Road dirt bike trip that weekend. If it works for everyone else then I'll join another time
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk
-
Yeah I can lead if you want. Once we cross to the north divide, I would like to try some new-to-me trails that Hevak blazed awhile back.
Aram, I think we should do either Palomar trail or Bee canyon up to Idyllwild when you're back in town.
-
I appologize in advance for the slow I'm about to type.
So, there's a trail that goes from roughly duffmans house in Fallbrook all the way to OC?
-
Yes, you can go all the way to silverado canyon.
-
Calling ****HEVAK****. Ray, help us out here with your Santiago savey please :-*
-
So for now this will be the info for this run.
Nov 3rd time 0900 meet place the Albertsons parking lot off mission and ammunition road in fallbrook.

Hey Woody, Ghost, SteveC, Adio, etc, who's in ??? Dead Pilot is back in town, don't let us down! Commit or get off the pot ;D
OK, I've been drinking a bit, you can tell when my stuff rimes, but we all need to get out!
-
If you guys think my rig can handle it, I'm in.
The route that goes to Santiago Peak would be nice because I'm close to home!
-
I'll meet you guys at the north main divide trail head.
And steve your rig can definitely handle it, it can be done in 2wd.

Just tell me when and where and I'll be there.
Duff what's your excuse, No CANVAZ?

How would a stock 2013 Titan Pro4X do on this trail? I just bought one, and that is what I will be bringing this trip (no trailer to pull the X, yet).
-
Im sure your titan Pro4x would do just fine. The only thing is ya may get some custom pin striping on your new truck lol. If im wrong im sure someone will say something. Too bad no trailer yet but it still would be cool to hit the trails
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk
-
Steve and Ted, you guys will have no problem! Mostly fire road.
Adio, We will probably make it to Hell's Kitchen around noon. It's 1/2 mile west of the Divide on Ortega Hwy.
Woody, you got me there. I was planing to go until the TruckHaven run came up. It's still too hot to go all the way to Nevada. And that's the best excuse I can come up with. The time and place for this run is somewhere earlier in the thread. It's Nov.3, 9am, at Albertson's on S. Mission and Ammunition. Hope to see ya there 8)
-
Think my rig can make it? I have a tow strap if I get stuck.
-
You might have some issues Danny. Broken glass on trails is always frowned upon.

Anyone coming gonna have a sccx sticker? I need one

Makes for good traction...and then you can leave the strap @ home. ;D
-
I am in for this run, November 3rd is post budget presentation.
Alex and I will grind the homework Friday night, and bring any readables for the trail.
Daphne will bring the Jeep AND stickers....just in case Danny needs to be strapped. Stickers and strapping....sounds like a party.
I'll check the forum for updates...thanks all.
Ted...your new Titan Pro4X (nice shameless plug on having a better rig than ALL of us..) will do just fine. Might be a little tight on some of the hairpin turns along the way, but the trail surface is pavement to fireroad to rocky road to ruts. Nothing major...we ran it in 2WD 90% of the time, and 4HI for the other 10%.
-
Cool glad to hear that you will make this run!

Just a reminder for this run that it is on the day time changes. So its we lose an hour right? I know my phone will do its own thing but that does mean I will lol
-
I think this time change "Fall back" actually gives us an extra hours sleep.
We're meeting here, right?

No free lunch guys!
Yeah, we will meet at the right side of you picture. And there's a Shell and 76 station accross the street.
I pre-ran Mt. Santiago last week on my KLR, everything looked good.
-
What time do you thnik we will be heading to the trail? I'm still planning on coming but my son has a race at 7:15 in Tustin. He tells me he can do the 10K in 45 minutes, so my plan is to push him into the truck as soon as he passes the finish line then head down. I should be able to get there in under an hour the way I drive. So if I'm not there exactly at 9:00 know I will be there shortly.
-
Sorry guys. I'm out.
-
^^THIS^^
You should be fine Woody, we'll keep and eye out.
-
Too scared to get your truck dirty john? I'll be debuting my titan swap. :-)
-
So since someone cant show now does that mean no sticker? :(
Ill be showing off my new rack

Does anyone have a map of roughly where we're going? Preferably south of the Ortega Hwy?

I was told that I might possibly be able to attend this trip with my 2WD? Would love to get out there with you and meet you all... If so, bring a sticker for me too? :)

Sorry guys I can't make it, I have another commitment in the afternoon.

If I gave you a map, it wouldn't be a 'secret trail' any more. Bring bread crums!
John, I can meet you for beer and stickers whenever you find time;)
Or just send the Girl ;D

When is this meet? I've scanned it but really didn't see a date, saw a time 0900. I might go if I convince the wife and nothing's been planned already.

I am still waiting for an approval from the wife. Not sure if we have plans or not. Plus I work from 2200-0200 prior to this event. We dont need me to fall asleep at the wheel on the trail.

I might accidentally be at Albertsons at 9. I didn't anticipate having the weekend off.

I'm not going to be able to make it either. Wife and I had plans I forgot about plus my father in law broke something on the sand buggy he asked for help to fix it as well.

BTW guys remember to turn back your clocks tonight or you might be early ::)

Sh!t!, I just googled that Albertsons and its 90min away.

Great run. Didn't even end up going to Santiago Peak. We got sidetracked at Wildomar OHV area. According to Duffman, he has never seen the gate open and one does not simply pass up an opportunity to explore formerly restricted areas!
I only got one shot.

BTW, where's Woody with the pixors?

I'm here. I had to go back and learn how to add pictures. Sorry there aren't more, my junior photographer is still learning not to cut off the subject.
