Default New Crawling Spot

Illinois Beach State Park in Zion where Wadsworth Road dead ends. Tons of rocky and sandy crawling areas. Check out my pics! Anyone interested in meeting out there??

This does look like a really cool place. I live in Elk Grove Village but a lot of the guys live South, as far as Joliet to the South and even farther, couple of guys live out West too, Rockford area.

i think that is the spot. there is a north and a south beach. the north beach isnt much fun, just a lot of sand and not many rocks. there is also a harbor alittle north of both of these, same story, not much going on there. i spent about 4 hours at the south beach area and didnt run out of new and exciting terrain

OK bro that is a done deal soon as it gets a little warmer I'll have to hit that place up! I used to fly stunt kites and run my TMaxx up there. I've even stayed at the resort a couple times. One of my fav spots since I moved from OH.

Nice looking FJ ...

I was planning on going up there this summer to go kayaking, fishing, and maybe even do some camping. Now I have another reason to get up there. Thanks for the pics of this spot.
