Scouting New Spots

[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

Did some scouting this wknd. found two more places to crawl.
got 2 more spots in mind towards hot springs,will be checking them soon.
i have lots of spots we can go, but accessability for those who dont have 4wd is a problem.
1.spillway in paron(my home)(dont laugh)
water was down, most of the time it is is
slate rock formations and hard sandstone type rock
good scaler area and next to state park so they have bathrooms and you can swim, something for the kids.

2. the cave! also in paron. just right off road hwy 9.
water was running,would be great in cooler weather lots of
bugs out right now.

see ya at the comp!

found 2 more possible spots today.

1. kanis park. at the back by the skateboard bowl.
if you got a buggy or truck you could get some air in these
skate pools!


2. boyle park. decent creek runs threw it,good sized rocks

You don't know how many times I have thought about taking a truck through that when I am out back. It looks great when the water is down.

might be headed towards hsprings @ my bday june 5th wknd.
to do some crawlin with the rc.
my clutch is going out on the rubicon!

[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

well went driving around sun morn and headed up towards my hometown of paron. and found alot of good crawlin spots just off the county roads.
up @ lake winonia and sylvia. as soon as all the bugs die off theyll be good to go.

also went to my "rockspot" and on the upper section(for those who have been there)me and my gf , filled gaps in the big rocks and made an awesome comp course,badass steep slopes, off camber climbs,8ft-15ft ledges to crawl @ and over! i was impressed with my cousins gc-1 ,i repo'd from him,till i fell off the ledge and broke the rear post off at the housing!
as before when the bugs die, this place is gonna be my next home!

found another spot by lake maumelle.
lil road side park,has a outcropping of rocks on a hill side,
by the water.
went and checked it out,rocks have good traction,needs limbs and leaves out of way,other than that,a nice place.
have to walk about 75 -100 yrds.
i know bbyrd doesnt like to walk waw waw wa.

Good work. I'm only about 70 miles from Hot Springs.

[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

i might try to go and check it out this wknd.
weather permitin.

[RotaryRush]

That looks like it could be a decent spot. Looks like it's right beside a road though... Is it a high traffic road? Is their parking close by?

[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

its at the top of west mountain.
if your down town hot springs, look up.
it has 3 look out spots,i believe its the very top one.
parking @10-15 cars.

i will be going to check it out, weather says @ 55-60 degrees.
this sat.
anyone wanna come with??

[constantmotion]

Been there tried that....Last October. It's not much too it....mostly too steep. It is at the very top of the mountain.

[m3kan1k]

its really not too steep ......my truck went all over it ...i had alot of fun jus playin alone n im sure it would be alot better with other people

[constantmotion]

It may work better with "today's" crawlers.....back then it was tough. My crawler is 200X better now.
