What is this trail rated? Are there by-passes for extremely hard obstacles?
When and where is the meet-up/air down?

Thanks

I think we are going to take two different trails one is hard with no bypasses the other will be newbie friendly. Where are you staying?

Scripps Ranch, San Diego

I've done some pretty sketchy trails out here in AZ, so the newbie trail may not be for me. How hard is the "difficult" trail? Does it require lockers?

What trail is planned for the newbie group? Maybe Holcolm Creek, Gold Mtn/Little John, Dishpan Springs? Or are you thinking something even easier? Really easy is Jacoby Canyon linked with Horsethief Flats. I'm willing to help out on the "Newbie" run if you studdly men are running John Bull (again).

And depending on rain/snow... I'm running doorless, topless as usual. 25 degrees won't scare the top back in my JK...

I'm down for everything except John Bull. I will say if a newbie run is going to be an after thought, I need to know. I don't wanna drive from Oxnard and not hit anything worth while. Just sayin'.
