Hi Guys - need help in the area. I just got my X about 2 weeks ago. Me and family are going to Angels Camp this memorial weekend, I decided to give my X a nice break-in ride. Yuh 8 hrs drive for me (live in San Diego). But my X is only a two wheeler =( and I would like to know if there are any easy trails with nice views in the area so I can smell some flowers hehe... Any tip will be appreciated. THANKS MUCH!

These 2 are the closest to Angels Camp from the book. It looks like there is a few more trails available if you're willing to drive a bit more.

Interested? :rolleyes:

Well, since you're interested...

Crandall Peak Trail
It starts from Camp Nine Road. The closest town is Vallecito. You can either take main road or Parrots Ferry Road. You'll see the Camp Nine Road about 1 mile away from Hwy 4 either way.

Clavey Bridge Road
The closest city is Tuolumne.
"From Tuolumne, turn east on Buchanan Road (FR14), following the sign for Cherry Lake. Travel 2.3 miles; then turn east on paved road immediately before the sign for Stanislaus National Forest. Immediately cross over North Fork Tuolumne River on bridge. Road turns to graded dirt." 0.1 miles later, you'll see Riverside Picnic Area on right. Road is now marked 1N01.

Hope you had time to get this information... :rolleyes:
