I think all of those are fire roads. Not really off roading, but he will learn about throttle and keeping traction in the turns. In the black canyon area you might find some rougher roads if he feels good off the pavement.

Black Canyon will probably be the easiest on the pregnant rhino.

because I am in Alpine, Viejas is where I would take a newbie on the beast...

totally graded; maybe some inch deep ruts here and there... up at the top you can continue on to Julian for a snack, or go towards Pine Valley and take the next step up... Bear Valley Road is a bit more, but still doable on the GS

Nate Harrison is pretty easy. Just about anything two wheel drive that hasn't been "slammed" could make it during the dry season.
