Best trails in Central Cali?
 

What are the best trails in Central Cali? My goal is to compile a list of trails extending from the Bay Area down to LA and over the Nevada California border. Please list you top trials or trips in this area! and if you have a trial out side of this region feel free to post it any way.

Tanks!

My top 3 trails

1.) Forest Road 29S02 AKA "Black Mt rd", located just north of Pozo in the Los Padres National Forest. Miles and miles of winding fire roads with lots of moderate to difficult rock sections.

The first spot looks great. Wish i was in the area.

Looks awesome! We're heading to Hollister Sunday if your going to be up a little more north.

I have been meening to make a trip to Hollister, can you post some pics on this thread from you trip?

-Thanks

Hollister is great. There is tons of opportunity for everyone to have fun, and if you get up high enough, there are some nice views of the valley. I used to ride dirt bikes a lot more on the lower range side. It's a great place to get away and camp for a weekend.

My jeep needs a little work before I feel confident taking it offload again, but I hope that I can meet you guys out there more this summer.

I've never been there(to the rubicon), but I bet it won't be long before rubicon is posted up here!

I plan on taking my camera so I should have plenty of photos Monday.

Jwb37 are you in Cali?

Yep, I'm up in San Jose.

Good deal I'm about an hour north of you. I'm sure we all will be heading on plenty of trips. I'll add u as a friend and keep in touch.

sounds good :thumbup1:

I will be looking forward to seeing some pics from Hollister, have either of you guys been on "the Rubicon" trail?

Not yet, grew up on east coast and relocated here five or so years ago. Just recently got my xj and last week got a lift and tires so starting to hit some trails. while I can save up to do more work then maybe bigger trails.

Nice pics, where are those trials at in San Fernando, if its your secret wheelin spot I understand but a general region wouuld be great. If I ever make it down your way I will be sure to get a hold of you. Keep the great pics comming
