Hey Monty.. glad to hear from you. I remember you talking about your course a year ago. Post us dsome pics on your progress! As soon as I get my NB TJ built, I'll be coming over. Also interested in scouting some locations with you in Bent Creek and Dupont Forest (especially Triple Falls.. lots of rock). I PM'ed everyone I could find in Western NC yesterday to try and get us mobilized. I guess I'll try again this year to get something hopping in WNC. I try to do all the planning in the winter so that we are ready for the Spring. We have enough people to have an active RC scaler community here, but its difficult to get everyone on the same page. If you can help me mobilize everyone, that will be awesome. We've even had some interest from Tennessee.

Plenty of rocks,trails, and creek area for hill climbs. But be for warned, bring extra parts. LOL If any of you are interested PM me and I can give an address or directions. Or if you guys get something together LMK Maybe I can bring some of us SC guys over and show how hard we play here in SC. LOL

Would love to guys but my rig is in the "build" phase. Trying to get some coordination on here though so that we can all get together soon. I sent alot of PMs to people but got no response. You may want to invite Vader2728. He expressed some interest in coming down from Bryson City. I'll be up and running asap... but I have alot of work ahead of me. First time building a rollcage and bumbers! Comp cutting a TJ...

Here is the "playground" I am building this Jeep for. My wife and I just moved to 20 minutes of Dupont Forest near Flat Rock NC. This particular spot is called Triple Falls. I look at it and see alot of RC fun in my future. My goal is to start at the bottom and find a scale route all the way to the top. For a sense of scale/size locate the guy standing just to the right of the lowest waterfall. This place is huge! |

Triple falls is an awesome spot. Never crawled there but have hiked around there years ago. Hatefulboy's place is a blast... And yes, bring parts. I find new weak spots on my rig every time I go there. Always a blast.

Looks like maybe a road trip will be in order for the near future. As soon as I get my rig settled.

The big rock and cedar rock trails in DuPont are full of potential as well and close to the parking lot I used to mountain bike there a lot before I moved to Chicago. I will be back around this may for a bit and will be bringing my honcho/ LR3 There are all kinds of places there that are just begging to have rc crawlers all over them |
