Great video. I liked your description of the road. I always wanted to go up Clark's Grade but I don't think my older 2008 Silverado 2 wheel drive could handle the rougher sections you describe. Beautiful campsite. Thanks for the trip.
Thank you 🙏🏽 That would be very tough to do in just 2WD. Or if you do decide to go, having someone that could possibly pull you in a tricky situation would be nice.
Not gonna lie, I'm here cause I thought you were Bradley Martin lol.. cool video btw, thanks for not having illegal campfires like other people in our local mountains
I’ll take that as a compliment 😂 lol thank you for watching! I hope others can see me do right, and leave no trace so we can all enjoy the outdoors together.
Didn't know this trail existed. I recently did Coyote Flat in my Tacoma and camped at Funnel Lake. Started at 3000ft and ended up at 10000ft. Good to know there's a mountain nearby I can camp at when I get the itch. Subscribed 👍
This is the first video I watch on your channel. Subscribed, I’m local in the San Bernardino County area. This is an awesome campsite you guys chose. Cheers
I just came across your channel and I’m a fan now! I’ve never camped at yellow post sites because I’m so overwhelmed with all of the sites in SoCal. I appreciate you explaining the road conditions as you’re going up. Gives me an idea on whether or not my Subaru crosstrek can make it up. I’ll have to check out this site with my husky. Thanks!
There will be some tricky spots but I believe you can make it! There was plenty of stock vehicles on the trail. The scenery is worth the drive. I appreciate your kind words 🙏🏽
Great video brother!! Editing, flyover commentary all top notch! As a Los Angeles native I love getting out that way as well. One thing to think about is maybe getting a hunting license to keep your pup safe. Coyotes are smart and the females are experts at luring dogs out to the pack! Being able to put a couple of those down when they were around you would have sent them all running. Either way i look forward to your future content. Be safe!
I appreciate your kind words! Thank you. We always have our weapons on us just in case as a last resort. Plus I’d hate to scare the 2+ other camps within 100yds of us. But if we were deep in BLM land, I know my buddy wouldn’t think twice lol I’ll have to look into getting a hunting license.
Hey man, the algorithm put this video on my feed and I checked it out. Love that camping spot with those rock formations. I want to go out and find it. You said you were near Bluff Lake. I looked for it on a map and there’s all kinds of roads around there. Any idea what road you were on? I see Mill Creek, 2N21, Sky Line Dr, Clark Summit, what is that road behind your chairs where I saw a car drive by during your video? Will I see that rock formation from the road?
We were along 2N86 (Kidd Cr RD). It was about just North East of Bluff Lake. You should be able to see the rock formation from the road if you look carefully for it. We were on the North side of the road.
We camped near Bluff Lake. Not sure if there is any fish in there, but it seemed to be gated off anyway. Driving through Bear Creek, that seems like it is a good possibility for Trout! I’ve also heard Cedar Lake has some Bass.
Absolutely! I believe a stock one would do it. Just a bumpy ride 👍🏽 Clark’s grade itself essentially has no obstacles. The 1N09 trail has some light obstacles that will have easy lines to take. Just watch out for big rocks on the trail 😂
Now that you mention it, I remember doing a 2 point turn at the beginning because of a sharp hairpin. But it wasn’t bad, must’ve been taken care of from the previous winter.
@@Camp_Peters I’ve been up there at the hairpin turn when a 2 Wd could almost make it and I’ve seen where my jeep really flexes to make it up. Been going up there since 1974.
Nice video bro! Did you start the 1N09 from the 330? Looks like a solid 30 mile ride up to Clarks Grade Summit. I usually come up the 2N02 trail from Pioneer Town. Thinking about taking this up, camp, pit stop in Big Bear and then work our way down the other side via 2N02.
Yes we started from the 330. Absolutely gorgeous drive with the landscape and creek crossings. Definitely worth checking out. I have not done 2N02 so I’ll have to check it out.
I wish I could make it up! Stuck at work this weekend. Would love to see the vendors and connect with local people. Hope you have a good trip up there!

Great video! I’ve been taking my son camping up there for the last couple years. Awesome to see someone highlight this spot in a quality video!! 🤘🏼
Thank you for the support 🙏🏽 it’s a beautiful area!
I am not from USA, and I really enjoy watching your content. You really show the beauty of nature on your videos.
I appreciate your support! Doing my best to capture the beauty of my surroundings.
Glad this showed up on my feed. The work put into this is amazing!!! Can’t wait to see this channel blow up!!
Grateful for your kind words 🙏🏽 thank you! I’ll do my best to keep improving each video.
Yup
Really great watch!! Odin is an adorable good boy! My dog and I are headed to big bear this weekend! 🏕️
Weather is starting to cool down up there! Hope you have a great time with your dog 🐕 🙌🏽

I took 1N09 a few weeks ago, need to go up again and find a dispersed spot to camp for 2-3 nights. Amazing video, subbed
I appreciate you 🙏🏽 thank you! I love it every time I go to Big Bear. So many trails and beautiful landscape to see.

I haven’t done a trip to Funnel lake yet but it is on my bucket list! Big Bear Lake is a nice trip within a 2 hour drive to adventure for the weekend.

Thank you! I appreciate the follow 🙏🏽
I think that screaming is a campground...stayed near bluff lake July 12th weekend and we kept hearing it all night haha
That campground goes hard! Crazy how late they party into the night.
Awesome video❤
Thank you!

I know exactly where that spot is at, ive stopped there to BBQ on our way up to big bear plenty of times. Awesome content man keep it up!

GGT! Ground Top Tents for the Win! But with those Arms you should just push the stakes into the ground and leave the hammer home.
🤣 I’ll give it a try next time just for you
Shout out to Finance and Maneuver.
Great guys 🤙🏽

Thinking of going to opposite way down Clark’s Grade. Any comments on the current condition out there?
The trail is well maintained. Couple spots to pass if needed.
Hey Luke! Was there any water up there for fishing ..other than the actual big bear lake ? Thank you bud!
We camped near Bluff Lake. Not sure if there is any fish in there, but it seemed to be gated off anyway.
Driving through Bear Creek, that seems like it is a good possibility for Trout! I’ve also heard Cedar Lake has some Bass.
What kind of bed rack is on your buddies tundra?
The Tundra uses a CaliRasied high bed rack.
The Ranger uses a RCI bed Rack.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Both trucks look sick! 🤙🏼
Hey brother you think a lifted Subaru outback would make it on that trail?
Absolutely! I believe a stock one would do it. Just a bumpy ride 👍🏽 Clark’s grade itself essentially has no obstacles. The 1N09 trail has some light obstacles that will have easy lines to take. Just watch out for big rocks on the trail 😂
You never showed the hairpin at the beginning of Clark’s grade! Sometimes easy, sometimes not, depends on previous winter.

Wow since 1974? You must know every trail by memory at this point in BIg Bear lol

@@Camp_Peters Nice! Yah man, you'll love it.
Aired down to how much?
I typically air down from 45psi to 25 psi for easy trails just for general comfort. Lowest I’ve gone is 15 psi on more difficult trails.
@@Camp_Peters man.. I'm not aired down till I'm at 12.
Why didn't you share your food with your friend since your dog ate his tacos that would have been nice
We share food! But everyone pays the dog tax 🐕
Get a game cam
Heading out to Holcomb Valley for the PURE 7.0 Weekend gig.
Saturday day trip, see what's goin on.
I wish I could make it up! Stuck at work this weekend. Would love to see the vendors and connect with local people. Hope you have a good trip up there!
You gotta get that psi down to about 15psi. Yea, it does make a big difference for just that 5psi difference.
