  • In this adventure, we visited what I consider one of the easiest overland trail in Socal, skyline dr in Big Bear, CA. We started at the east side of the trail and slowly made our way west. This trail is extremely easy with only a few areas of rut. Most vehicles including any regular car can make this trail. We end up finding a cool campsite near the east side of the trail. If you're looking for an easy overlanding trail in SoCal, I highly recommend this one.

    Love that you explore a lot of trails near me. I’m kind of shocked you had some trouble here and at JT, your truck is set up way better than mine, maybe it’s because I drive crap roads constantly and I’m used to it? Or it could be I drive like an idiot??? Lol
    Keep it up love the videos!

    • @Michael_Tran
      @Michael_Tran  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you...depending on the trail. This trail is not needed but if it's sandy or super rocky, I normally do it to around 20psi from 40psi. I've gone down to 5psi once and my tires sidewall can take it, this was in Utah where sand are super fine. Don't recommend going that low unless you really have to.
