I can’t get the link.
Had a buddy of mine go today and it’s the smoothest it’s been in years . Guess they flatten it out this past week . Planning on going Sunday
I took my leveled 08 f-150 33” tire 2WD up this trail. Completed it, but I’m not gonna do it again. Trail maxed out my 2WD abilities honestly. July 2020
First I'm relatively new to 4wheeling. I've watched a few of your videos. You do an absolutely amazing job!!! Thank you so much for your videos!!!
Thank you for the excellent video and the directions. I took my GX460 -2.5 lift kit, KO2s, and didnt have any problem with obstacles. Followed the fire roads. Your directions on the off shoots to avoid totally helped. In the fire road descent section, there were a couple of off camber lines. Kept me at the edge, but managed well. Thank you!
Just did this trail today ... 2wheel drive 2020 trd off-road no lift just all terrain tires ... with a group of friends
nice
Watched this video in the morning on August 22, went out and ran this trail today and also Pilot Rock. Cleghorn was a little challenging looking in a few spots but my Grand Cherokee Trailhawk had no problems at all with it. Some dude did roll on one of the harder offshoots tho, so be careful. Thanks for the video, made the vague intersections easy to navigate!
Wow, it got noticeably worse from when I went up on June 21. Stock Kia Telluride with AT tires. Made it but I did scrape the bottom front bumper pretty good. I did go to the right of the punchbowl, luckily there is a spot to do a 3point turn right before it drops in. Came away with a few nice pinstripes. I'd say this is pretty much the limit of most SUVs because of approach angles and ground clearance. I love your channel. Please keep the easy stuff coming and maybe add an SUV category to what can make the trail? This Covid shutdown has a lot of new off-roaders like myself taking the family truckster out into the fields.
Do you think a AWD Rav4 with 8.5 inches of clearance should attempt this?
@@Kirb3000DB Should be okay on clearance. I would recommend having AT tires if only for puncture resistance. Also know that you'll probably get some light pinstriping from the bushes; sometimes the line you have to take will put you right to the edge.
Looking forward to joining y'all whenever/wherever the next group ride happens. I just moved to Southern California, happy to have found your channel. Cheers
Great video and thanks for updating the community. I posted a buyer beware warning for this trail a few weeks ago on your older Cleghorn part 1 video after running my Power Wagon through it and finding a number of people running into ruts they had not expected.
It was because of your report, and a few others we've received in the last few months that we decided to do an updated video! Thanks!
NotaRubicon Productions oh awesome, well I’m happy to do my part to help keep the 4x4 community updated. There was only one part on the “fire road” where I used my rear locker, the second challenge where you squeezed by on the driver side. I probably could have gone without but I figured hey I have the gear so I might as well just role through slow and steady. Anyway, big fan of your videos and appreciate the time you take to do these guides. I started wheeling a few years ago by watching your videos so I had at least some idea of what to do lol. Hope to see you out on the trails!
Watched the video Sunday morning; hit the trial Sunday afternoon. Good amount of traffic. Definitely some huge potholes - came across a couple broken vehicles, including a Chevrolet Traverse that blew out a rim and tire after one of the rutted sections (he really had NO business on the trail given the current state of the roadbed.). There is also some pretty "angry" shrubs and brush along the trail - left several good "trail stripes" on the passenger side of the H1. Jeeps will fare much better in the narrow, heavy brush sections. Good Time. Thanks for posting this updated review of the trail and the GPX file. Lots of off-shoots and the GPX file adds confidence we're on the right path.
Awesome..this one is next on the list...thank you for the video and the info....
The fire road now is about as difficult as the off-shoots were back when did them in the early 90's in my 2WD F150. I only got stuck once going downhill on the final off-shoot after cresting the peak. I was running on 3 inches of lift, 33" BFG AT's an Auburn limited slip with 4.11 gears. It was scraping both side in a few spots but was no big deal. I would think twice about the off-shoots in my 4WD prerunner now. Over use and heavy rain ruts have changed it a lot over the years.
Used to see Cadillacs on the fire road back in the '90's
We saw street cars on it in 2016 after it was graded!
Just went yesterday on a stock 1st gen tacoma 2wd and only made it about 1/4 way through before we turned back. Road was too rutted and had to be pulled out of some spots. It was also my first time going so that could be a reason for me not making it too
Cool videos thank you for teaching us 🙌
Just got a 4th gen 4runner 4×4 lifted with e-locker and with the v8
And looking to start learning nd going places lol
Yup at 8:30 mark is where I stopped and went back down about a month ago in my 2 wheel drive tundra it was me and 2 other buddy’s no other trucks didn’t know how the rest of the trail was so I went back down better safe than sorry
My son and I did Cleghorn on Sunday, I agree with the video. Pay attention, even fire roads can bite you.
I wish I had seen your video before I went to Cleghorn. I just found out that I did indeed take "Hell's Road" and this was my first time ever doing actual off-roading usually I would go in the sand dunes which that's fairly simple. However thanks to my auntie's training and experience (she's a veteran Jeep rock climbing off-roader) I got through Hell's Road with flying colors and boy what an experience what an adventure, I won't lie I was a little worried but I didn't allow fear to take over. There is a wrecked Jeep on a turn going on to Hell's Road you'll know you've hit Hell's Road when you see the wrecked Jeep I think it's been there for years as a landmark. I am so proud of myself I accomplished it by myself all alone and nobody was in front of me or behind me I went on a non busy day on a weekday and I came out with an awesome Fantastic Adventurous time. I do not recommend anyone who is brand-new to go alone. They really need to see this video. Again if it wasn't for my aunts experience and teachings I would have probably called in the Ranger and would have needed air lift support or something like that. I am so happy and proud of myself. 🤙
How long does it take for just fire roads?
Great information thank you for the video sir
This trail has become considerably more difficult, even the fire road is rutted out now, I would say subarus could do it but U have to pick the right lines to take. Easy to flex out and scrape ur framerails
Nice video. I understand you wouldn't recommend for a 2wd. I have a 2wd F-150, 4 inch lift, 35's and a locker. Are there any trails you can recommend? I would like something like fire roads, just go enjoy with my family.
Your truck would do just fine in this trail. I've done it several times in my stock tacoma and never had to engage 4x4. You have way more clearance than I do. As long as you don't try the off shoots you'll be good.
Just judging from this video but it looks doable for a 2WD SUV. I’m considering going here in a Honda Pilot.
I got a 2wd 06 ranger. There's a group of like 10 rigs going December 12. That's when I'm going to go in case I get stuck. More than welcome to come
great help in here. thank you.
Great video! Where do you recommend I park if I’m hauling my can-am on a trailer?
I seen people parking on side of the exit ramp.
Mrs. Naughty Rubicon, you say? Sounds interesting.
Great! Thanks for the info.......
How does it take just taking the fire roads?
For a first time off roader w a new Bronco Sasquatch (lifted) which trail(s) would you suggest?
It’s definitely rutted in some spots, was there on 7/4/20. Wouldn’t recommend if you only have 2wd. Stayed on the fire road the entire way. I got stuck on @7:47 going on the left side just like the Jeep in the video. Lost traction on 3 wheels, got high centered, soft sand on the left there’s a metal wash pipe you drive over. Stacked some rocks under the wheel & got right out. Running a ‘18 4Runner w AT tires no lift. Talked to the park ranger on the trail he says it’s way more rutted than normal and will likely be graded early next year.
Good to hear! After they grade the road it will be like a freeway again..Until it rains...
I took my mdx 2010 pretty sketchy awd cool vid
As of jan 2021 This trail is high clearance 4x4 only.... high clearance 2wd trucks is fine on the fire road but wouldn't recommend cars, unibody crossovers and suv's
Thanks for your videos! They really help me as a beginner. How long does this trail take to complete?
If you stick on the fire-road only, and dont dilly-dally, you could easily finish in 1 or 1.5 hours.. it's only about 15 miles or so.
@@TheNotaRubicon great thanks!
I live in el Centro. I would love to come meet up one day, I have a 71 bronco
Fo anyone wanting to do this road until the summit flat area in 2wd it’s possible me and my buddy stayed in 2wd for that part
I’m in Santa Clarita. Watch all your vids. Is there a full size truck group in this area? I’d love to hit some of these trails with a group.
Full sized trucks are welcome on our beginner runs! you can sign-up to get notified of our public runs on our website, here: www.notarubicon.com/eventreg/

Been wanting to try this trail but not sure if I can make it all the way through I have a 99 grand Cherokee with a 3in lift
I've done it in my stock tacoma 2wd. It's not that difficult
Would like to go in the next group....do you post it somewhere or how do we get that info.
You can get on the list for notifications of our public runs here:

I just bought a 2020 jeep sport s..(I wish it was a Rubicon but couldn't afford it)..and I will like to get a 3.5 lift with 37/17 tires...is there a place that you can recommend that can do the job?I'm in fontana..thanks for your videos 👍
We have all the work done on our Jeeps at Empire Motorsports on Bally Ct in Rancho Cucamonga - its just above the 10Fwy a bit west of Haven Ave.. If you call/go there, ask for "A.J." and be sure to tell him that The NotARubicon sent you so he can tell you about any deals they have going on!

where exactly is parking if you want to take a dirt bike for that road
Summit OHV staging area, off Hwy 138.
im a lone wolf
Can you make it on HT tires?
Depends on the vehicle and the driver, so, maybe!
2006 Sequoia 4WD, beginner off roader
It depends on how much of a beginner you are. If you've only been off road a few times, we would not recommend it. Otherwise, dont go alone!
Thanks for the great advice. Love your channel. What trail would you recommend for a beginner?
We have TEN that we recommend in this video! --> ruclips.net/video/t_J1pAGxyaA/видео.html
Any idea what it looks like after all this rain?
It usually gets VERY rutted after snow & rain - sometimes even the (easy) fire-road can get VERY rutted or even impassable.. But they usually grade it quickly when it gets bad.
@@TheNotaRubicon gotcha. Thanks for the reply. I ended up going to Baldy Mesa today, and I was shocked to see how rutted the trails were. Very few people out there today.
Stock Gladior "Willy's" trim - no lift. Only saw a couple places in the video where I'd have to be a bit choosy on the lines. Sounds like this vido was made a couple years ago (mid-2020?). Anybody been through there recently (just the fire road, no offshoots) - is it worse, better, about the same?
I’ll find out tomorrow lol
@@foru2nvsti how was it lol
@@protectbulldogskennelshe never made it out 😂
I’m going tomorrow with my gladiator but I’m 4.5” lift on 37s. A buddy is going on a nearly stock TJ though
Is this trail okay for mountain biking?
