White Mountain Off Road Trail (3N17) In Big Bear

  • Small group of Jeeps on the 3N17 White Mountain off-road trail from near Lucerne Valley. We had five Jeep JKs, one Jeep TJ and an old Jeep CJ.
    White Mountain is moderately difficult with several steep hills and a few extra credit sections including "Suicide Hill" which is very steep and very off-camber at the top. About mid-way through the trail, just above where 3N56 meets 3N17, the white Jeep TJ slipped off a rock and nearly rolled over. We had to quickly strap him to two other Jeeps to get it stable and then recover him. Looking back we probably would have strapped the Jeep differently, but in the heat of the moment you do what you gotta do - On Monday morning, everyone is an expert..
    For an easy trail it was an exciting day in Big Bear!

    That's sketchy! I remember seeing a new roll like that when I was a kid. Dude tried to back around on a steep hill he couldn't get up. He was in a CJ5. I had a CJ-7 in high school, so I love you buddy's rig! Good job extracting that Jeep without too much damage! Also, good job camerawoman! She's the real MVP!

    wow. that first recovery effort was impressive. how the heck did he get the jeep like that ? haha. Good job guys.

    This is why you wheel in groups. A couple of my buddy’s and I have pushed the limits by ourselves and it’s definitely not a good idea. If that dude in the white Jeep was alone he would’ve been toast. Always hit the trails prepared!

    One thing I love about the off road community vs the racing community. Off road community EVERY ONE helps each other.

    What an awesome team effort to help this guy out of a jam. 3:08 Its scary to think about him having gone rock crawling alone. I heard some really good advice yesterday that in case of a roll over make sure you keep your hands (and feet) inside the vehicle. This guy did not do that. Seems like every rock crawler should plan ahead where he is going to grab with his hands INSIDE his vehicle when its rolling. Do you guys have a safety discussion after events like this to talk about how people could have reacted better? I recall one of your videos, Randy, where you installed extra hand holds inside your jeep. I didn't realize how important that was till now. How is that guy in the white jeep doing? Is he back out on the trails or did he call it quits?

  • @johnbennett4362
    @johnbennett4362 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The video shows Suicide Hill plus two other difficult hillclimbs. I know Suicide is optional. Are the subsequent two optional or required to complete the trail? Thanks, loved the video.

    • @TheNotaRubicon
      @TheNotaRubicon  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The only other optional hill is the one shown starting at at 06:59 .. but the go-around for that one although flat, is very rutted and difficult.. while we were filming this video, the entire time there was a group of vehicles stuck in the go-around.

  • @TheBronco67

    haha i just watched and noticed while watching my feet were pressing accelerator and working the clutch. I guess 4 wheeling never gets out of your blood as I have been in hawaii last 20 years and the closest thing I got to off roading is road to the beach.

    I think it would be nice to take a small generator and a jack hammer while off reading to in case lol

    nice video overall, good recovery, really liked the time-lapse too! but 10:42 i see no wheels spinning, not using 4lo?

    • @TheNotaRubicon
      @TheNotaRubicon  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We were wondering the same thing! It sure did feel like he was in HI and not LO.

    • @jerroldshelton9367
      @jerroldshelton9367 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't think he was in four-low. If he was, that thing must have insanely high final-drive gears in the differentials.

    Having a good spotter and picking the right line can make all the difference. It can be a game of inches....

    I did this in a Land Rover Defender with 2 Rubicons and a Toyota FJ about 3 months ago. Ironically enough I think we commented on the rock that Ken got stuck on, about how it was in the middle of the trail and how it was totally unstable. Great video, suicide hill isn't called that for no reason!

    The Maroon Sahara is a great example of how much more difficult things are on a trail like this without lockers.

      I did this trail with my 18 Tacoma. Only thing it had done to it at the time was a 2 inch lift at 33's.
      No lockers just A-trac and I did everything no problem. Just had to take my time and pick a good line.
