My Jeep dealer, Glenn E. Thomas, held an outing on June 1 for customers to explore/become familiar with the capabilities of their Wranglers...and a clever way to foster loyalty to Jeep and their dealership.
They organize one such event each quarter. This time we started in the Mojave desert at 10am, went up those mountains through Rattlesnake Canyon, ending at 8,000 feet near Big Bear at 4pm.
21 Jeeps showed up. As usual, they split us into two groups: "Moderate" and "Advanced". It is not the most hard-core offroading but it was well organized and great fun: you get to meet other customers, spend the day wheeling and see incredible vistas and the great outdoors.
Here are some snapshots.
Enjoy!
Gathering at the trailhead
21 Jeeps in all
Up Rattlesnake Canyon
A local guy by the name of "Critter" led us up the trail; the dealer staff remained at the back of the group
Water still running through the desert, even in an super dry year like this one
The kids were having a lot of fun
Lunch break - I am in the orange Jeep right in the center of the photo
The Black Diamond section --the white JK is totally stock with the exception of the steel rear bumper
