Find some live oak trees. There root system that is above ground usually makes a great crawling spot. Check out the city parks in the area for these.

Check out the rc track in Scott, (2 exits west on I10 after you get off I 49, head south and first road to the right after you go back over the over pass, 1/2 mile the track is on the right) There is a large drainage canal next to the track lined with really large rocks.

Near the hilton on pinhook there some old rubble from a building that was torn down full of concrete and other junk. I havent looked at it up close but there like 3 huge piles of debris. its been there for a couple of years now too. Im gonna eventually take some for my own course when i get the time and the mrc tuned up....

I was able to do a little cralwing today at Cajun RC in Lafayette. They were set up for a Mini Losi and not the 2.2 size but it was still fun picking new lines. But the Mini Losi crawled a lot better than I thought. I had fun driving the owners rig. If you go ask him about his challenge when some one buys a new mini losi. So if you are in Lafayette and have a mini check out Cajun RC.

Not to burst your bubble but they jus removed all that rubble. There might be some small stuff. Good luck though.
