Default My backyard crawler course! PIC HEAVY

I started my little course in early 2012


I had a couple of bridges at first,


but I felt the need for more.


After a while, things got boring...
So I mixed my small pile of rocks with one of my bridges

I was granted permission to extend my course by about 4'

Enough room for a new bridge.

As of now, I have changed some of the bridges a bit, but I don't think I like where I put them.
I'm planning on getting some more rock and possibly moving my bridges some where better.

The multi level stick bridges are a cool idea.

I re-did my course in the last few days.



It's still not done yet...

Tested the new layout, also put some little signs in for fun.
This bridge is successful. It's easily passable both ways.

No such thing as a dead end on this course.



This will make more sense when my buddy is over.

This bridge is also awesome. I can even make it up the steep way with caked tires.


Bricks.

Hope you like it.

I don't know if you can get your hands on some bulk PU spray foam, but but you can, you can make some kick ass sand stone out of it. Just spray it out, let it cure, dig chunks out of it if you want, coat it with PU glue, and cover with sand.

Got some dirt!


There will be a valley or two, and obviously some hill climbs.

Thanks Yaeger! I will build some more, because most of my smaller ones are broken.

Sweet course, bridges look like a lot of fun to drive on gave me a lot of ideas for when I get into it.
