Here are some pic's of Heath, Bill and myself @ Heath's place, 10 acres of crawling heaven...

First up we got Bill's sexy Hustler. What a nice and capable rig. We spent the day dodging bullets as none of our rigs are waterproof...and we played in the creek the whole time.

Bill climed up onto this rock with wet Moab XL's... Had me impressed.

Even harder climb (about 15 inches straight up, also nice and wet)

Next up is Heath's TLT (POS as he calls it, but Bill and I call it a work in progress, it gets better every time it goes out). Rig has a lot of flex for a TLT...

Not sure if you can really tell or not, but lots of running water here... If I get a chance, I will host up the video I took (just a few clips) that show how much water there really was. One of my later pics shows one of the less deep parts...

Here are a few of my NN based Clod.

Did someone say water?

Here I come...

The waterfall, one of the coolest parts of the creek.

Group shot.

I think Heath has some work to do... He has so much crawling goodness on his property... CLEAN IT UP MAN! Should do a clean up day with a couple folks...

Just curious what part of Shingle is that? Is it out towards French Creek?

Trikster · 03-26-2007, 02:32 PM

Have to ask Heath or Bill, I have no idea.

Rockpiledriver, I sent you a PM a while back about Hustler springs...did ya get it?

HEATHIN · 03-26-2007, 02:46 PM

Well, This 10 acres we have here is overgrown 30 years. So I can tell you that as we explore more the spots & variety are only going to get better. The wife tells me that when she was growing up here that there are tons of areas to crawl, from the creek to Giant bolders the size of trucks with moss covering them. There is a saying here on the property ( We have some dirt to go with our rocks here on our 10 acres) LOL
I allready have 5 different spots that we have tried so far. The creek was the most fun so far. With some help, the creek crawl area could be trippled in length. The wild blackberries have taken over a huge area of the creek. It is very rugged in the little canyon we live in. So clearing it is not an easy task!

Looking forward to having more over to Crawl!! It is truly awesome!

Thanks for letting me ramble!! Come on over & Crawl!!

People are probably in shock or something. The title I gave the thread is kind of lame too...
