Re: SoCal check in
Alright! 9am @ Big Bear Visitor Center, I just googled it and this is the first showing up. RonB & H2Finally, please confirm there is only one visitor center and this is the one?
http://www.bigbear.com/about/visitor_center/ 630 Bartlett Road Big Bear Lake, CA 92315 Are we using CB or FRS? |
Re: SoCal check in
In the past we've used the Discovery Center or the Ranger station on the other side of the lake -- less crowded, lots of parking, and not in the middle of the village (which can be a nightmare on a Sat). The trail head for Gold Mtn is somewhere in the area of "A - 10" on the lower map including Baldwin Lake (select directions and maps, then select the printable version).
We could meet at the trail-head -- there's lots of room to park/air down if I remember correctly, I have a topo program so I could post the gps coordinates. It really doesn't matter to me -- just trying to stay away from crowds. Ron B |
Re: SoCal check in
Ron, anywhere you say is fine, since you're leading the run..:p:D
Please post address (my GPS don't do topo cords). Wil, I'm using CB. |
Re: SoCal check in
CB for us too :D

Re: SoCal check in
why don't we meet at the Discovery Center -- parking, restrooms, hookers, maps if you want them. It's on 38 about 5 or 6 miles before you hit the trail-head (between Fawnskin and the Stanfield cutoff). The Ranger Station is a 1/2 mile or so farther east on 38 (I only say this because I have adresses for both, but gps coord. for the Ranger Station only).
The adresses: Big Bear Discovery Center 41397 North Shore Dr (HWY 38) 909-382-2790 Big Bear Ranger Station 41300 North Shore Dr (HWY 38) 909-866-3437 approx gps coord. -- N 34deg 15' 48" W 116deg 54' 03" (deg, min, sec) Gold Mnt trailhead/HWY 38 -- approx N 34deg 16' 28" W 116deg 49' 10" The time is up to you guys. Bring your recovery gear, tie-rods, and take off the side steps or the trail will do it for you! Ron B 818-427-3041 |
Re: SoCal check in
