Is Holcomb Creek the HARDEST Trail in the San Bernardino National Forest?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

There are a handful of difficult trails you can explore in the San Bernardino National Forest, but is Holcomb Creek the most difficult? In this video my good friend Marco and I take our original Jeep Wrangler JK's and set off on a great adventure tackling some intense obstacles along the way. #jeepwrangler #holcombcreek #offroading

    A few years back, I went there with an off road group and we weren't exactly told how difficult the trails were going to be. I showed up in an LJ with a 2 inch lift and 33s. The guy who organized the event showed up in a CJ5 on 33's. The trails took forever but we managed to get even the little rigs through with enough spotting work and good driving. It still amazes me how my LJ was able to get through Holcomb and John Bull with how basic the build was. That trip was one of the defining moments for me in off roading and this video brings back a lot of great memories. Thank you :)
