Holy Jim Canyon Trail

Took the Jeep out to Holy Jim Canyon here in SoCal recently for a little R&D session. I also brought our marketing juggernaut Greg Taniguchi along for the ride. Holy Jim Canyon isn't the toughest trail by any means, but it does have some very scenic sections. These sections have a few areas that are perfect for scale crawlers that don't mind getting their feet wet. I also brought along my Slash in case the opportunity came up to stretch it's legs a little, which luckily it did. Here's a few pictures from the trip.

The road in is nicely shaded with tree cover

There are a few spots along the trail to twist up the 1:1's suspension a little too

There's a decent spot to play with the short course trucks near the trailhead to Holy Jim Canyon as well

I haven't had a chance to take the Jeep out very often lately. So, this short trip to Holy Jim was perfect for me. And an afternoon test session in the great outdoors beats being in the office any day.
