Hello everyone.
Anyone here done the Chepo Saddle trail near Bass Lake? I went and did this trail yesterday for my first time. I think I pulled a muscle I was puckered up so much doing this trail. The trail is pretty short, but very tough, at least I thought so. I did not get any video, and only got a few pics when I was out of my rig. Great little trail to go and wheel for the day. Hit the trail around noon and was back at home in Fresno by 6pm.




If I hit it just right, I might make it.

Yeah, I've been through there a couple times. It's a nice trail, it's close to Fresno, and it's lower so it doesn't get (much, any?) snow. I didn't recognize the spots in your pics and maybe that's why I didn't think it was that hard. Fun trail.

I've done it once in the rain but was having issues with my truck and have always wanted to run it again. It's true that driving 120 miles for such a short trail is tough but I have a few friends in the Oakhurst area that I can hang out with-

Chad, you should have called Jon or Holly. They are always down for a quick afternoon trail ride up there-

Also what are the details on that Datsun ... 620??

It's a Datsun on a ,I think, a 81 Toyota chassis with all Toyota running gear. The main trail is pretty easy. It's when you take that drop into the creek bed route that things get REAL hairy.
If I hit it just right, I might make it.
