PNW member looking to come wheel Northern Cali

[98CherokeeSport]

i am located in washington and at this point kind of bored with our trails up here. i have seen pictures from a few trips from northern california and wanted to get your opinions on if it would be worth me coming down to hit some of the local northern trails?

and if you guys think they are worth the drive maybe we could set up a weekend where you guys could give me a tour of the area?

thanks!

Most of the trails won't open until mid-June or later due to snowfall. When are you planning to come down? We have Sierra Fest in August which will hit Deer Valley and Slick Rock trails.

o wow i didnt know they were closed that late. ours open up the 1st of april.

depending on how work is going and how much time i can get off i might be able to make sierra fest. if i do i will probably arrive thursday night leave early sunday morning.

whats the difficulty rating on those trail areas?

Trails are not to bad and it is a great event but if i was driving 14 hours down here i would take a week off and run the con, dusy/swamp lake area. Sierrafest maybe worth the drive? But i would knock one of those off my list first, assuming you are built for it.

Not trying to talk you out of it, just do some reseach decide what trails you want to run and we can show you around.

well at the moment im linked front and rear, coilovers up front, dana 60 rear, dana 44 front, fully caged in and out, 111" Wheelbase, and would be on 37" mtrs by then with beadlocks.

i will definitely have to look into the trails a bit more. i have been wanting to run the rubicon and i have heard good things about the dusy. what about fordyce creek also?
