Buford Dam (North Atlanta)

[Fishmaxx]

Destroyer and I got together Jan 2 for a little crawling.

Possible spot for a competition this spring.

This picture was shot standing in a the campground. The dam continues about a 1/2 mile further, and about a 1/4 mile back the other direction.

Most of the dam is to tough for RC's, but there is plenty of places



More pictures coming

Same view as 1st picture with me crawling off the beach up the dam wall.

Not as steep as it looked in the 1st picture

Noticed I Photoshoped X into the first (2) photos. They mark the same rock 8O

That spot looks like it could be alot of fun.

Now that I think about it, there is a place very similiar to that on Alatoona I think. My Weekends have been booked up alot recently , but I will try to get some pics soon.

Kevin, I took the clod to Colorado............If you would have been there you would have seen it

Yes it is........... It was easy & cheap 8O

I think its better than the driver allows to be :?


A little carnage from the dam

[killertxt]

Nice pic fish.Looks like a good spot to have a comp.

[Destroyer]

That was definately a fun spot to crawl. Ranged from massive boulders to small "scale" size rocks. We had some good carnage Would be a nice place to do a camp n' crawl.

On a side note: Killer-are you organizing SFR3 or someone else?

yeh, yeh, we all wish we could go to every event! I wish i could have made it. But i guess no one has an excuse when talking to you. you're the only nut around that's flown across the country to attend a comp.

i've heard dirk has the same problem, "I think its better than the driver allows to be :? "

maybe a PARC event!!!!!!!!!! come on, you will be missing the BEST terrain i have ever seen for rock crawling. Either way, hope you can make it out here sometime for some crawling.

[Fishmaxx]

Yes it is!

Hey fish, I am in B'ham Alabama. Maybe next time you guys get together on the weekend I can meet up with you. I finally got to do some crawling with the other guys in Guntersville at bucks pocket.

[kingcobra]

are you guys getting together again any time soon? and is this a competition or just for fun? I'm going out to stone mountain very soon to see if I can find a good spot to crawl that the park rangers won't get too pissy about...I'll take the video camera to show what I found. I'm looking to find an area that GA crawlers can meet mabey once a month or so to get together and shoot the sh*t mabey do a little crawling. not really a sanctioned competition but more of a crawling get together. and stone mountain would be sweet as there is a cookout area and stuff right there.

[Fishmaxx]

Been to Stone Mtn............finding a spot that the rangers don't get pissy about and/or isn't a hike are the issues. There are some cool spots for some trail rides.
Also it costs about $8 to get into STN MTN.

I have a season's pass to STN MTN good through JUNE, just let me know when!

Buford Dam has for more diverse terrian in a smaller area. It has lots of pinic area close to the action! You can see the pinic table and grill in the picture of the first post!


Either one is good.
