Upland CA : Fun Crawling Area, West IE, Cucamonga Wash / Basin

[z50king]

There is a large wash above my house that I think is fun to crawl in. It is a County of San Bernardino Recreation Area but there is no real name for it. The best name I can find is Cucamonga Canyon/Wash. It drains Cucamonga Peak and the Cucamonga Creek Trail dead ends into the wash coming from the South.

From the crawling I have done, I have found: acres of dense river rock. creek crawling. poured concrete climbs. blown concrete climbs with small rocks. Blown concrete area with medium rocks. small fine sand hills. mixed sand/rock climbs. rain ruts that are fun to crawl though. 65 degree poured concrete climb. There are few big rocks that are fun, but not many with combos.
There may be possible Big Rock crawling but I have not tried it as there are big, deep holes between the rocks.

This is the map. Park at the end of 24th street or 25th street.

The blown concrete climbs are on both sides of the South spillway.
The sand is in the basin up against the dam.
The blown concrete area that is very fun is on the West side of the wash. Walk North on the upper trail and then take a trail down into the wash. Then take the lower trail North. The area is at the bottom of the very steep water entrance just past the power lines.
The creek, right now in Summer, is going to be about 20 minutes of walking up the wash due to low water flow. Find the West trail and follow it into the wash and across to the other side.
The big rocks are right off the parking area, just walk through the gate and look down over the edge. I have never crawled these because the gaps between the rocks look deep!

PICTURES NOT WORKING

There are ACRES of fun rocks like this. the rocks between these little areas are fun too.

this thing is fun. It's super steep and the concrete is super smooth in some places from years of water running over it. There are two of these right next to each other.

Somebody built this Bud Light hut, lol. I almost drove over it but got stuck and had to climb up it! sketch lol

this was placed, but it's a good shot! There are a few big rocks that you can climb but there are not many that are strung together that you can make combos out of.
