Trip Leader : Scott Horsley
Roverboard Udated Information Page
Trip Difficulty
Easy to Moderate. With some difficult sections that can be bypassed.
This may change and could become more difficult depending on the weather. It is best to have
AT or other off-road tires but you can get by not doing the harder sections with street tires. It is
preferred that you do not have sidesteps as they can get bent fairly easy.
Meet Here
Cleghorn Road exit just off the I-15 freeway. Fill up before you arrive, there is a Chevron station
1 mile north of the exit at the 138 and I-15 exit.

Itinerary

Overview of the area
Cleghorn Ridge Trail is a combination of two parallel trails, one difficult and the other easy that
intersect at several points. Beginning at the Cleghorn Road exit off the I-15 freeway, this trail
offers ridge top views over Mount Baldy and ends at Silverwood Lake, California on Hwy 138
The roughly graded route in this trail is suitable for medium clearance 2WD in dry weather. The
US Forest Service has designated this trail as 2N47.
There is a separate 4WD trail (marked as X2W47) that runs parallel to the main route and is
smaller. This one intersects the main trail often and has a rating of "difficult". The good news is
that drivers are able to view the route beforehand and can choose the sections they want to
leave out. The start of the trail has an easy rating which gets tougher as you move towards the
top of the Cleghorn Ridge.
