Trail Overview

Holcomb Creek Road is a great trail for the new off-roaders in the forest near Big Bear. The trail provides plenty of dense forest scenery and some easy-to-moderate 4x4 challenges. The most notable obstacle on the trail is a rocky hill climb on the east end of the trail. This is also a connector trail that will take you from Copley Road to Holcomb Valley Road and a lot of other trips that branch off that.

Difficulty

There is really one major obstacle on this, which is a 40-degree hill climb with several moderate-sized rocks and ledges. At roughly 30 feet long, the hill climb is just big enough to get the heart pumping and for you to second guess your line of attack. This is much easier if you are coming from the west since it's now a downhill obstacle, but you still need to choose your line carefully and "tread lightly". Some people have tried to create a bypass--please don't follow that route and stick to the main trail
