    Thanks Brad, I love the thoughtfulness to your community that you put in these videos including safety and rules messages. I would never take a trail because it is easy, or hard. The destination is why I chose the routes, the journey is why I go and This list is completely within that philosophy no matter how experienced, or risk averse your viewers are. Good job. I'm a Texas guy so it may take me a while to do all 10, but I'll be retiring in less than 2 years and plan to be migratory.

Plus I recently had to sell my yj and only have my wife’s grand Cherokee L which is no rubicon.

    My favorite to bring people who are thinking about getting into off roading is the Nate Harrison Grade at Palomar Mountain. It's about 8 miles and drops you off by the fire ranger lookout for some great views of Southern California from LA to Mexico. If they are enjoying the trip, you can take Palomar divide back down and make it to Julian for lunch and pie before heading back

    Will definitely travel from Tucson to check some of these trails out. The Mica Gem mine is on our way to San Diego, we've gone rockhounding near there (closer to the Coyote's flying saucer retrieval and repair). Do you ever have to worry about flash floods in the sandstone canyon tail?

    Just went to the squeeze on Sandstone Canyon two. days ago. Deep ruts in it. There is a work around to the left, but i couldn’t do it in my DCLB Tacoma.

    About to take my kiddo and nephew out to Oriflamme. I think that trail is a little closer than Palomar (which you say is the closest to San Diego). But it always depends on where in San Diego you are. Black Mountain is probably the absolute closes to down town.

    Ah, Thomas mountain was one of my favorites when I lived in the area. Not all that easy with a foot or two of snow on the ground.

    I've got to work harder so I can take more time to do all these trails. California is great if you love off-road life

    Hey Brad, love your videos….. In thinking I love the overview of these offroad trails, but what if you wanted to take your Power Wagon which is a full-size truck. Your reviews were taken driving a Jeep. I have a F250 and you also have a camper on a Power Wagon it would nice to know if a full-size truck can navigate these trails. Keep up the great work and keep those videos coming…..

    This is one of my favorite Trail Recon videos! Which of these trails would be ok to do with a 2WD Jeep XJ? I keep thinking of converting it to 4WD, but I just never seen to find the time. Work gets in the way of my adventures!

    @TrailRocon, loved the list. When you refer to something as easy trail. Do we need a35inch off road tires all the time or can we get it done with a 20 inch AS tires? I am only asking these for trails that are marked easy... Thank you!

    Thanks for sharing these locations. I have a four wheel drive Silverado Z71, which isn't as nimble as your Jeep. Would these trails still be a good choice for me? An honest assessment would make me a novice/moderate skillset looking for fun day trips.

    Jaw bone canyon is an amazing trail starting about 1,500 miles about sea level and elevating to around 9,000 miles above sea level it has amazing views the higher you go beautiful wild life growth you go up and around the sequoia national forest mountain and back down end up at lake Isabella were you can relax swim and if you are luck and can find it some pretty cool little hot springs the trail is about 3-4 hours long but if you take your time and enjoy the scenery it is ez 5 hour+ i highly recommend it its a very ez trail but beautiful nonetheless

    Agreed, this trail is a gem, although pretty long, at almost 50 miles to Isabella from the historic Jawbone Canyon Store. We've done it in a day, but prefer to make a weekend out of it, camping in the forest or down at the lake .
