Black Star Canyon crazies - Your experience?
So I went to Black Star Canyon trailhead today. I wanted to ride up to Beeks place before the rains hit. Some guy had just come back down to his car as I was about to leave. He said one of the locals up near Hidden Ranch let his German Shepard loose on him. He also warned me to watch out for some guy in a red pickup. On top of that, he said one of the locals that goes by the name "Black Star Bill" like to SHOOT at riders.
What the hell is up with this place? Apparently these guys have been put in jail, but continue to attack riders. I am curious if anyone here has been personally assaulted. I would bet a news station like OCN would just LOVE a story like this. I am thinking of contacting them, but need a lot more information about this.
Now, I realize that there are plenty of good trails to ride, but if someone does not do anything about it, someone is going to get seriously hurt because they did not know about these hicks.
I don't think I would ride up there alone.
Anyway, would like to hear more about these guys.
I opted for Silverado...had a good time in the drizzle!
Jeff

Silverado is better anyways.
Stories like this have been coming out of Black Star for decades. I personally have never experienced any problems.
There is this to consider, for years Black Star was an open road to the Cleveland Natl Forest. Then after a massive rain in the 70's that gully washed out the road. In less than a blink of an eye - they closed the road and put up all those fences. Apparently, they have the right. Obviously, they have no desire to allow access and have done everything they can to impose their position.
Also, there is a CHP or Sheriff who lives in one of those houses along the paved section. Apparently, he does not take to kindly to access either.

Anyone know anymore about this guy in the red truck? A girl i know was chased last night for about 5 miles by a guy in a red single cab 89-92 pickup (maybe an s10) before he actually ran her off the road and she crashed. He then stopped with his lights on her wrecked car and watched her struggle and then left. Luckily she escaped with minor injuries but please this is no joke if anyone knows who this @$$hole is please let me know.

Black star bill has been booted out by the powers that be,he was a squatter. Riding blackstar has always been legal
if you hear some crap from anyone either call a cop and they will escourt you or just ride through dont argue

It wasn't the canyon folks. Can you say meanie Mexicans gangs bangers that have no jobs, no life, no brains and leech off of society and ruin everything they come in contact with. Somebody needs to go find Blackstar Bill and move him back in, see what happens when you mess the balance of nature? He would have chased them off with his sawed off 12-gauge before any trouble started.

hey man, i'm glad i saw your thing you posted up. My friends have been up there and i know others that have been up there too. its is some CRAZY sh*t! my friend got shot at and chaced by a bunch of KKK people. they also saw a dead body of a mexican in the bushes.Thats wack isn't it? This kid in my summer school class told me that his and his budies would go up there but only when they were drunk cuz its so damn scary. He told me that there is satanic cults up there and when they see you they wait for you and then attack you and have guns. They also got chased by KKK people. Me and my budies will one day go up there and explore. but we will be armed. i'm a thrill seeker.. i want to see this sh*t.

- Re: Black Star Canyon crazies - Your experience?
i know that people have been shot at i know this for sure because i talked to a helicopter officer that i met in my r.o.p class and he actually had to search black star canyon for a sniper that was shooting at people or bikers. this is no joke but they got him. hearing this and a whole bunch of other stories i have heard about through my high school its pretty creepy. check this out http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20040613/news_1n13region.html kind of reminds me of a real life situation of "the hills have eyes" me and my brother went through the city of black star or what ever them hicks call it down there and man you get the wierdest feeling. its a little city of a two lane road going through it and just the people give your the weirdest and dirtiest looks . i thing i know for sure is the only people that live out there are poeple with meth labs and then the inbreds that try to kill people.
