I wanted to start this thread so us upstaters could post our favorite crawling spots so we can give eachother crawling spot ideas

Jeephead · 10-19-2009, 08:55 AM

Yeah we are trying to find good locations as well up here in South Glens Falls. So far we have crawled under bridge in SGF and up on Spier Falls Road off exit 17 by the pole lines. We are determined to find the perfect location that is not to far away. Keep trying to talk LBS to build an indoor course but he likes his oval carpet track.....zzzzzz....boring! I am running a CR-01, TXT, and a Cliff CLimber, My buddies have a Summit, Cliff CLimber, Clod, and I think an HPI Wheelie King. We should try and get together sometime. Where do you go by you?

Hey guys I'm in Wells VT basically Granville NY and only 45 min From Glens falls and I'm building a home course plus there are tons of slate quarries with days of crawling available. I'll snap some pics of one of the quarry sites today when I drive through. Just wanted to give you another option and maybe get a few guys together for some crawling. Getting kinda boring drinking beer and crawling all by my lonesome. lol

here is an early pic of my start, I have added more sense this was taken add more almost daily.

Hey cool. I live in South Glens Falls. VT has rocks! I have been collecting rocks myself for the back yard. Yeah I work at a site just on the border of VT off Main St in Granville from time to time. PM me with your address and contact stuff. I would like to check out your course. I run a CR-01 and a TXT, the girl has a Cliff Climber. Talk to you soon. Looks like Labatts, eh?

brettweir78 · 11-28-2009, 10:43 PM

mr.freeze · 11-29-2009, 05:47 AM

In the spring? I'm crawling till the snow covers the rocks!

Nice to meet you yesterday Dave, had fun killing batteries.
We need more guys to get together, until then I'll keep piling the rocks.

Same here Stan, hopefully we can squeak out a few more before Old man Winter shows up! Stack 'em high!

Jeephead · 11-30-2009, 08:55 PM

Here are some shots from this weekend. Hooked up with Mr.Freeze to do some crawling. Well, Mr.Freeze did some crawling, I was busy spinning my tires smooth and polishing my body on the rocks! HA!. Was a good time.

Thanks Stan!
Waiting for video to upload to You tube......

mr.freeze · 12-01-2009, 05:20 AM

Sweet!

I don't know what you have planned for this weekend but I'll be off call.
Maybe we can start a little earlier and make the pile scale freindly, oh ya and bring the markers!

Jeephead · 12-01-2009, 05:46 AM

I will find out. I was supposed to go to see sister this weekend but that might not happen. I will do some tweaking just in case! Earlier would be better. Got dark to fast, HA!
Check out video. Got a little grainy cause we were running out of light.
