LOL No my back is bad enough from racing dirt bikes. I will carry your spare batteries in my camera bag/backpack if needed.

The video is rendering, should be on youtube in about an hour or so.

Ok while the video is uploading I'll get going with the photos and where they were taken.

First the Map:



The red is the trail that I mentioned earlier that has the better spots, this is only about 1/3 of the whole park, but best suited to scale r/c. I suggest parking at fisher field, at the end of the road that St Andrews Presbyterian church is on. That will start you at the you are here arrow on this map.



This poser shot is right along Skinner Trail. There are a few rocks here and the water is shallow enough to do a little running in but there is better creek scaling along Grant Trail later and then embankment here is rather steep.



This action shot is from where Fern trail and Bay Trail meet. Nice little area with a bunch of roots and sticks that make some sweet lines. This is also the second clip of the video.



Same spot as above.



About half way down Fern Trail. There are probably a half dozen spots like this along this trail, with a ton of tough lines. I broke my right front axle shaft at this particular tree and had to do some trail side work to remove it and carry on the rest of the day with three wheel drive.



Three wheelin' right by the corner of Fern Trail and Palm Trail. This is a 3 shot HDR for those photogs that are wondering.



This is Kettles Trail, lots and lots of tree roots along here.



Another along Kettles Trail.



This little guy was along Grant Trail and watched as I did the little creek bed run at the end of the video.





This is the better rock pile / creek that I mentioned earlier. This one is along Grant Trail, right by the lake. I didnt dare take my rig in there with only three wheel drive.

Thats all for now till the video is posted. Thanks for following along!

When I get my Ruby I will be epoxying the board on my ESC like Holmes's or just send it in.
I really want my first water proof RC, tired of avoiding the mud and water and missing out on the fun.

Big rock pile, off camber of course. That is if I can find a large quantity of softball sized rock for cheap.

I lined the bottom with about 1 1/2" of cypress mulch,.. totally keeps the weeds out.
