Default Wifes rock garden

Been moving stones and changing things, as I learn more and make my rig more capable.
My bridge with a twist.

Tight squeeze, it still messes me up, if you are on the wrong line it will bind your rig up.

A little horse shoe action

A small drop, hope you have drag brakes.

Testing sidehill ability.

I borrowed this from the videos of Midwest Crawl.

This line is tough if you drop a front tire, broke an axle pin, should have let off.

My favorite section of the track, it really tests how your rig twists.


A view up the lane, could be fun depending on gate placement

Looking to get a few people to test run the course, any volunteers.
thanks for looking
walt

I have already started planning a rock garden and don't even have a crawler yet. Yours looks great.

Thanks guys for the comments, I am a very lucky man. Wife knows a happy man is one who is allowed his toys. 22 tons of stone and a dump truck load of clay and alot of sweat equals a close play area. Plus as a bonus my 5 year old girl is learning to wheel a rig.

I like how you you used flags as gate markers. Looks like fun.

Looks good but it looks like it's more for you than her unless she's a crawler.
