I'm in bellflower and work in Huntington/Newport beach. My truck isn't done but there are a few spots I've scoped out in HB that have potential

45 minutes give or take with traffic isn't bad. I can probably swing that. What time do people start showing up?

In the spring and summer they charge $15.00 to park in the lot right next to the rocks, so some people find places to park up at the top in the neighborhood and walk down the stairs. But in the winter months they do not man the toll booth so parking is FREEEEEE. | |

Land crab. Were you at the west coast Easter egg hunt? Saw some pics with what looked like ur rig in it. If so how did you do? Was at the swap meet this weekend and found a bruder recycling truck in great shape. Anyone have any use for it? |

Columbia Park in Torrance is a good crawler spot. It's located on the northwest corner of 190th street and Prairie Ave.

Thank you, I'm gonna try Delthorne this week (a member PM'd me about it ) and I will try Columbia Park next week. I just got my Traxxas Summit and never knew these spots are so close... Columbia Park aka home of the pigeon feeder guy parked on 190th Anyhow I like to crawl with you guys from time to time. My Summit is not a scaler but I'm a good sport |

| Re: Long beach The smooth river rock makes for challenging traction when dry. Pretty nice place to crawl isn't it. I think I need to get over there this weekend.

Almost broken my neck on more than one occasion. My son and I drop by whenever it fits in our schedule. Sometimes we se other scalers/crawlers but most of the time we don't. I like to go either early or late in the day to avoid too many kids playing on the playground or the rocks. Not sure when I'm going to drop by this weekend...
