Big Bear, north-shore 4×4

Messing around and camping on the north side of the lake. We did trails on the east side, slightly snowy.

If you go

The north shore of Big Bear, up in the San Bernardino National Forest, is the 4×4 and dispersed-camp side — Holcomb Valley and trails like Gold Mountain and John Bull, plus yellow-post camp sites that are free and first-come. In winter you’ll want chains in the car and a check on trail status; snow closes the higher routes, and the resort side fills with the LA ski crowd on weekends.
