Default HOMEMADE SCALE COURSES! pictures?

Yes ive seen the homemade rock course thread, but im looking for more of a scale course. Since i got my honcho, it can do everything around me with ease compared to my old cc-01

So has anyone made a SCALE course? meaning not just a huge pile of dumped rocks?

Shoot, I wish I had that problem. I'll trade you all my dumb rocks or sand for some of your dirt so I can build a SC track in back. My jumps just blow away and leave the rocks.

If it's an actual Nature (P)Reserve.....someone may go nuts, indeed!
Be careful - even us RCers need to tread lightly, if for nothing else, to at least keep us from looking bad.

Im a little south of ya and in our case it's not preserves but state parks.
Down here they have Clifty Falls I go to and going to try out Falls of the Ohio this weekend and see how it is. They have comps there.
