Hey, I'm only 35! I can get to them all eventually. Can't I? Let a brother dream!

Every time I go by Mormon Rocks I think that would be fun to ride those rocks.

If you are going up that far I would just continue up to Wrightwood and ride Blue Ridge Trail.

Oh, yeah, the Mormon rocks up past Devore. Right? I'd ride there.

DEAN...dood....can you name a single trail you've yet to ride??? I expect to see a Blue Ridge ride posted in the future...please !! Looks like a fun trail ...
Lived at Mormon Rocks (station) briefly and spent many nights on those large sandstone rocks staring at the stars but those would be some ...what...20 foot hucks !! Seriously...beautiful rock formations in that area.

Lots of trails yet to ride. Alvin Meadows is next on my short list. Blue Ridge is coming up...want to go? I am also due for a Big Bear or Fawnskin run.

We are luckly to have so many trails close by. Ocean rides, mountain rides, desert rides we are blessed.

very blessed, I think So. Cal. is the place to live if you like outdoor activities.

Those rocks off the 138 I would love to ride....Maybe I will see if my buddy wants to head over there with me and just ride them for a while. Whenever I pass by I always look for lines that I could ride over some of those rocks

The ride I'm planning will include the long fireroad climb from Mt. Baldy road thru Barrett-Starttard Road towards Cucamonga Canyon including a good climb to Frankish Peak which is this peak here (you can see it's ridge on the left of the pic):



once we get to the top of Frankish prak well blast down to the stream in Cucamonga Cayon then climb out to end up at the Sapphire Street Trailhead, where Gurp started this peticular ride.

i'm planning this ride as a long loop which is going to include a long road climb in order to connect the whole thing.

I'll keep you guys posted on this ride soon.

As for the massive San Sevaine road climb, that fireroad that takes you to Lytle Creek, i've only climbed all the way to the top and it's a super long grind. not easy at all, but very much worth doing at least once.
