Default Motorgen Off Road Cruise - Silverwood Trail

It's official, where gonna rock it on November 8 up the Silverado trail. This trail is appropriate for beginners and stock off-road vehicles, with trail options for more advanced drivers and vehicles.

It's the Silverwood trail. The trail starts out at Silverwood Lake off the 173. Here are some pics taken from when my brothers club ran it a couple years ago. They also did Dish Pan in Big Bear that same day so pics 1-50 are of Siverwood.

Again, a lot of the hard spots have easier bypasses.

Mike, we'd probably have room in one of the other vehicles if you're interested at all?

I'm realizing that the new Motorgen meet (formerly McDonald's meet) would also be on the 8th. Do anyone have any idea if I have any chance of making it back to Fullerton by 8ish that night?

If we go out at a reasonable hour in the morning, we should be back in the afternoon I think. It'll be getting dark considerably earlier by then as well.

Shouldn't be a problem if we start the run in the morning. The more vehicles there are the longer the run will take. When I use to run it with just my family it would take about an hour and a half to go to the top and back. Figure with 8 or so trucks it would probably take about 3 hours to complete the run and be back on the road home.

Could like a 4WD F250 Diesel make it through this course, or is it too much for that? I guess what I'm asking is what's the minimum level a vehicle could be at to make it through this course? Will any 4WD vehicle be able to make it through (within reason)?
