Cleveland National Forest Report

[Mike Mike Motorbike]

I have nothing to add, I just thought I would start a thread where people could get/give the status of the Gates (open or closed) and Roads (anything new) depending on whether they are coming or going.

Actually the last time I rode up Lincoln a few months ago , There was a housing track that was being built and a sign saying trail closed.
I just road around it and it was in-fact not closed.......

This thread is a good idea as it seems that people are always wondering what the status of the gates is.

The only way to know the latest on gates is to call the Trabuco District office the day BEFORE yo plan to head up.

I am a patrol volunteer on the CNF, and I can tell you that the website is notorius for being inaccurate...

Can you tell me about the Lincoln entrance.
Is it really closed or is it just the housing developer trying to keep people off the job site?

[Mike Mike Motorbike]

OK anybody going up there??

What's open??

[Chief Gunner]

here's some news from the southern end of the Cleveland National Forest...

Makes me think I need to be carefull riding up there, them thar "Ganja Farmers" can be dangerous to people riding legally near their illegal crops..

I can't and don't smoke, touch or go near the stuff myself but that sounds like allot of weed!



SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Federal agents have uprooted more than $20 million worth of pot, in three huge marijuana grows, within San Diego County's Cleveland National Forest.

The Drug Enforcement Administration says more than 7,200 marijuana plants, some up to seven feet tall, were confiscated in last week's raids.

The raids included DEA agents, National Guard troops and U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management and San Diego Sheriff's Department investigators.

More than 60 marijuana growing sites and more than 128,000 plants have been discovered so far this year in the San Diego area.

Maple Springs road and the rest of the mountian will be open in November, according to a number of rangers I have spoken to up there in the last month or two. I believe the website also makes reference to this.

You can always hit Ortega and ride about 15 miles of North Main Divide and IT trail for a little fun.

BE sure to stop at Hell's Kitchen for a beer or two on the way out to watch fat Harley guys crash when leaving the parking lot

Don't you think a place called Hell's kitchen would be where you should take your 22 year old wife for your anniversary? Sorry she's 23, I remember now you met her when she was kinda young.

WOW Jim!.........So you are still alive

When can you come out and play again?

How's the family?

I'm trying to get out all of my communication to you in this post since it's the only time I've had a chance to communicate with you since you fell off the face of the planet.

When you have time and you can do the only thing that is truly important, that being riding, give me a call.

Anyone notice that Google Maps doesn't show any of the trails out there any more?

Strange stuff. If I had a tinfoil hat I'd be screaming "Conspiracy!" and painting my bikes flat black.

Thanks
