I am thinking about exploring Mount Patterson later this summer. My understanding is that this is the highest peak in CA that you can drive to. Here is a nice video showing one route to the top. Looking on the map I have, it appears that there are a couple different routes. I’m looking for...

Hi, I am trying to log into the site (tried both from work machine and from mobile phone) and am seeing this error. It does not seem to be IP address related. My attempts have been via wifi and cellular connections. Any ideas? -- Bennett

I was wondering if anyone has found any good 4x4 classes, and whether anyone can provide recommendations. I'm looking for something organized with a mix of theory and practice. Maybe some recovery training too. I found one company offering training in So Cal, but haven't found any in Nor Cal...

Yesterday (Saturday August 20, 2016) I drove the Corral Hollow trail and when I got to the Now famous OB campsite overlooking the Bear Valley Ski Resort I found a very nice LED flashlight on the ground. Given how many OB members are running that trail, I thought it might belong to a member...
