Excellent backcountry trail in SoCal. I’d say the best overlandibg trail the area has to offer. It’s long enough for a half day adventure as it’s 10 miles of forest road to the trail head and a few miles to exit. A great step up trail for those looking to take their off roading to the next level. The main trail isn’t very difficult but requires 4 low and a small lift with solid off road tires. The offchutes (3 of them) require lockers.

Did this trail as part of an Overlanding Trail in a 2019 Jeep Sahara with 33 BF KO2 and A 1.5 Inch lift. I was out there by myself so it was a hell of a workout to climb the hills and pick my lines.
I was able to do it well with the sway bar disconnected and it was a blast. Saw no one on this trail at all and found a really nice camping spot.
I will say this! The trail itself is nice but if you want to just get a camping spot with the view of the desert then enter from the end of the trail as the trail can be done with an SUV for the first mile from this direction.
All the best!

We jumped on to 3N17 from 3N56 only experiencing the tail end of the trail before getting back on 3N16 Holcomb Valley. That last technical climb we took the trail on the left. A spotter would be good on this section. The portion before this was pretty rocky. The view was amazing.

Did this in a 98 cherokee with 35’s long armed on a 6.5” lift and lockers. Didn’t have any issues, but had to ditch my buddies Tacoma at the trailhead and come back for it after. We also had 3 JK’s, a CJ7, and a 4 runner with us. I was the only one to attempt suicide hill, and made it, but probably because everything was dry and there was no loose soil or rocks. Fun trail, will definitely do it again!

I took my STOCK 2018 wrangler unlimited base RENTAL( LOL I know) to this trail coming down from big bear, it was my mistake because I thought I was on 3n14( original plan) for a while. We were so lucky we made it down in one piece, without damage. Downhill on 3N17 is way easier than uphill. I do not recommend inexperienced drivers and this trail should not be travel on your own. Great scenery, defiantly will comeback with prepared rig.

Had a challenging and fun time on this trail. This was my third time off-road and made it through with a friend spotting some of the more difficult areas. I am in a 18' GC Trailhawk and was with an 18' Tacoma off-road and 16 Wrangler 2-door. The Wrangler had a pretty easy time for most of the trail. The Tacoma and I had to pick our lines a but more delicately.

Very nice and challenging trail. Good for intermediate drivers. Lots of rocks so keep an eye out or you might accidentally hit your sidewall or axle. Managed to make it up Suicide Hill in my stock TJ w/ 31s but I probably wont do that again. Dont forget to stop by the summit to take in the views.

This trail provides the most epic views of Lucerne Valley on a clear day. I love this trail! We traveled from west to east this time but I've done it two other times going from west to east.
