Wait till you guys see this................Headed out shortly to do some running and take vid and pics. High traction boulders the size of my 1:1.:shock:
It is actually right around the corner from our upcoming comp location. Biggest area so far. "thumbsup"
A lttle bit of paradise in the middle of the woods. Great shade but no power.:-(

Hey Matt can your truck make it out to this spot? Or do we have to carry everthing?
This thread suck without pics. Also don't get a pic with your truck on one rock or i'll have to beat you up at the next comp.

Here's a couple pics. :shock: Workin' on the vid.
It is 10 times bigger than what you see in the pics. Wouldn't hurt to have a couple more bridges. Possibilities are endless. "thumbsup"

If your rig falls through a hole at the top of that pile, you may never get it back. Very cool though...
