Poor Pontiac!


What should we do?


Ramp it baby!


Ok, cool! Now what?


Winch it upright!


Rockin' idea!


Woohoo!

 

Pontiac Sluice
August 3, 2003 • Big Bear, California

No one knew where it was, but we were out to find it. The long awaited legend of the Pontiac was unfolding as the minutes went on. After a while, we heard, "This is it!" on the CB. It was Chris. His photographic memory had gotten us to the trail! :D

The first part of the trail is marked blue for medium difficulty. This may explain how an old, broken-down and stripped Pontiac got back there to get stuck. In fact, that old thing is what gave the trail its name.

When we found this old beast, she was belly-up. What good is that!? After Erik ramped her he decided to winch her back right. Video to come soon!

As we climbed through the Sluice, we found small rock gardens and a very scenic drive. Erik managed to bang up his tie rod somehow! The trail does a loop and your way in is your way out. Rick and Sarah retired early to work on the locker install, and boy, Sarah can hear it clunking around outside right now even with the windows shut. Dayum.
