Aight we are back from today's scouting and got the pics loaded.

ELEPHANT ROCK IS HELL BETTER than ANYTHING we have found so far here. The pics I took only scratch the surface of everything we have to crawl on up there. I drove my jeep all day, Chris ran his 1.9 then my comp rig. And all pics are UN-EDITED, Chris's brain came up with the tricks. (God I wish I was that size normally,lol.)

elvis · 05-12-2008, 10:14 PM

I'd post the pics from when me and johnson22456 went but no star for me and too lazy to go the other methods.

Mav-1981 · 05-12-2008, 10:48 PM

Send em the pics, I got a star and can do the owrk of the other stuff, I wanna see what you guys have from there

max power · 05-13-2008, 04:46 PM

Tasty stuff right there, when we going??

Hellbilly · 05-13-2008, 06:17 PM

Very nice spot!If you guys decide to have a 2.2 comp there I might have to make the drive.

johnson22456 · 05-13-2008, 06:39 PM

I love this place. To bad I was working or I would have went with you guys.

Mav-1981 · 05-13-2008, 07:00 PM

I would love to do a comp there but a couple issues, first we cant reserve anything, first come, first serve. Next I would need to get in touch wit the parks dept. to see if a comp there would be ok cause you know they can get seriously picky about stuff like that. Would love to do a comp there though. All kinds of scale stuff, we would have to do some serious scouting to be able to put up a comp course.

Yea Mav You Have To Get A Hold Of The Parks Dept. I Had To Reserve The Spot At My Comp. Pretty Cool They Let Us Do What We Wanted For A 125.00. All Day.

Mav-1981 · 05-13-2008, 09:11 PM

Oh thats not bad, I will see what I can do

JohnRobHolmes · 05-13-2008, 09:16 PM

I figured that would be an awesome spot to crawl. I will have to make it down there at some point this summer.

dezfan · 05-13-2008, 09:23 PM

Road trip!

Mav-1981 · 05-13-2008, 10:26 PM

I just dropped them an email, lets see what happens.

Mav-1981 · 05-13-2008, 10:43 PM

I was jsut digging around on MO parks website, look like there is much more down around there besides Elephant Rock so a day or 2 more of scouting would be good cause a couple other parks right around there (within a few minutes at most of each other) look like may be more possible for a comp.event.

run2jeepn · 05-14-2008, 12:24 AM

I just Googled map that a couple of weeks ago. Wish it was Closer to Springfield, Mo.... I'd try and make it up sometime. I'm bidding for a new post next Quater. Maybe I'll get lucky and get a Saturday off this time.

That is a MO Department of Conservation Area.

johnson22456 · 05-16-2008, 10:46 PM

Hey, mav

You still want to go monday?

Mav-1981 · 05-16-2008, 11:01 PM

Yeah, will know for sure sunday cause sniper has my jeep and the comp is in pieces (I am gutting the comp rig for now to do my 1.9 as I use my scalers more thanmy comp, it just ends up being a spare for someone to use,lol)

Sniper is hoping to have the jeep done tomorrow, he is jsut redoing my rollcage/spare tire rack in aluminum and making bumpers for it. he said he was already pretty close today so I dont want to say FOR SURE but more than likely, like 99% sure I am going monday.

johnson22456 · 05-16-2008, 11:11 PM

OK, I'm going for sure.
John (elvis) said he is going, and my wife and son want to go climb on the rocks. So if your going let me know. I live here in hillsboro so if you want to meet down here somewhere lmk.
