Default Allegan Area

Was wondering if there are any guys in the Allegan,Otsego,Plainwell,Hamilton,Dorr....etc. area's that would be interested in a meet and greet/crawling get together. My boy and I have found a couple fun spots in the downtown Allegan area, and are scoping out more ..........hit me up if any one might be interested

We've went to the Holland state park before and ran the rocks. There are guys from all over. More guys in west michigan here though. Sometimes you have to travel to crawl. Do you have pics of the spots in Allegan? are they scaler freindly? or comp rig set up? let us know we might be in for a day trip down there.

these pics are down by the iron bridge area, at the back of a Perrigo parking lot by the river, just around the corner from here is a massive pile of these rocks, which would make for some good climbs.





It has a bigger open area on one end, then a narrower section that runs along the riverbank for about 100 or so feet then a smaller area then a narrow section that runs along the parking lot, making one big ovalish shape.

these are from behind the library by one of the parks, got some more looking to do around town, sure there are plenty more places to go.

this climb is a little trickier and steep than it looks


my son's mini on the left, mine on the right

there is one spot, not real big, but in the same place that I didn't get any pics of.

It's just more like real 4-wheeling. You don't need a full out comp rig to have fun. Just a big trailride and such.
