Crawl @ Lake Kaweah JUNE 20!
 
Nice Zack! What is that body?:shock: Does it hold a six pack? Very cool"thumbsup"
You still got the Blazer?

I put the buzz out to Slowpoke. He and ol' lady both crawl SCX & Honcho respectively. Hope some of these others on this thread chat up and crawl with us.

I get my baby on the 25th, so I'm free the 20th, sunday!

Here's how my Scaler & 2.2 are rolling!

Lake Kaweah Park
 
"Kaweah Recreation Area" lat=36.3946873, lon=-118.9870666

Heres the coordinates for google earth or gps, etc.

198 East, past 99 & Visalia. Can't miss it. Look for huge boat ramp and parking lot. Depending on water level, we can look around there for what to crawl. Then and Or we will go east about 5 miles to slick rock.

And there's a couple good places to eat and some stores just past this point.

What time you thinking? I'm prob gonna leave head out @ 9am. It's about an hour drive. But that's me being early.

Hey fresno guys.. I was wondering if there is anyone in or near squaw valley? I just might be moving there in a few months if things dont pick up with economy down here. My mother lives there, I have an losi lnc modified by myself, and a mini crawler too. Hope to meet some out there and crawling with when I am in the area.. Anyone knows of near sv? Thanks

Dannnnnggggg iiiittttt!!!
 
Sorry boys. I had crap come up this weekend. No Can Do. Work related.

DrunkDriver 06-14-2010 11:42 AM

Ok, so another time? I have plenty of styrene to keep me busy until then.

Skin Krawler 06-14-2010 01:34 PM

Yeah I hope so. I'll have my 6 year old this summer. But I plan on camping a bit with here, so maybe Shaver Lake it will be :)

HOSS 06-14-2010 01:46 PM

Kaweah
 
The Lake's quite full and any rocks used for erosion control seem to be of the same size = lots of holes between, therefore not very good.
Seem like everything up in Three Rivers is private property.
Come late summer / fall Kaweah will be lower and yes there are a few good spots off ramp#2, Slick Rock usually has a lot of people.
Either way it's $4 for day use.

I was up 180 last weekend and Stoney Creeks sure looked good, could camp, kids and wife could enjoy the creek etc, and some good crawling.
If I'm right it's between the parks so crawl'n should be ok?

Bass Lake's full also, most of Rocky Point is under water.

Guess that leaves Dinky Creek and Rock Creek Roads and Bald Mountain in the Shaver area.

Seems like I my "crawl'n season's" from Fall to Spring, Summer I can be found sailing R/C Yachts with the SMYC (Sierra Model Yacht Club) at PLaza Park in Visalia off 198 on Sundays.

New to Visalia and need to find out some spots to go and crawl or some GTG's. Hook me up with the info.

Thanks"thumbsup"

Skin Krawler 06-17-2010 12:03 AM

Nice. Good to here more peeps in the area. Would be nice to have camping weekend to Crawl. Won't feel under the gun to drive far and be able to relax with some refreshment in the evening. Plus those night crawls will be much better :ror:

Welcome to the Area R4L! Break out google earth or a map. Pretty much everything good is east & northeast of us. Anything up the 41, 168 and 180 will lead you to rocks.

JeepinOR 06-30-2010 09:06 AM

Wow - we have three listed in Visalia now!? Let's put together a little comp....and everyone can be a winner! :lmao:

We should definitely try to plan an afternoon/evening of some crawling...

MrKiss 07-06-2010 09:47 PM

Hey Fresno crawlers, I am new to RC crawling but I am hooked. Looking for some people to crawl with.

When the lake is low, there are some great spots, so I've heard. There may or may not be a group in fresno, if there is, its a very closed group from people at Trail Gear or Marlin crawlers.

I don't understand why those of us here have such a hard time getting together, I know I'm not the only one whose tried.

well that sucks there r alot of good places above friant. Too bad we cant get some guys together

NorZepol 08-10-2010 03:38 PM

Whats up guys. I am also in Visalia. Not new to the area (born and raised) but relatively new to RCC. I have been to the Kaweah area also. I like the area near Horse Creek Campgroud. Its good to see there are some of us in the area. Our LHS does not really cater to crawlers, maybe if we get some more in there it might change. Maybe Ill see some of you at the lake one of these days.

slowpoke69 09-13-2010 06:46 PM

Alright guys this thread has been quiet for to long. Anyone been around Lake Kaweah? Hows the water levels? Lets have a gtg. I'm looking forward to some new people.
