|  Any good crawling close to blowing rock?
As the title asks anywhere good to crawl near blowing rock? I mean somewhere with actual naturally formed rocks? No trailing or mud puddles or a couple broken cinder blocks haha.

There is some good stuff by Blowing Rock boulders off of 221. Most of the good crawling spots take some time to get to. I have been doing a lot of trailing on both sides of Grandfather and in Linville Gorge. I was a ranger on Grandfather for four years so I know the trails pretty well. I know you aren't into trailing but once you get to the ridge line on Grandfather it is rock crawling heaven. I usually take my wraith or scx10 and carry another true crawler strapped to my pack for the ridge line. There are some good rock formations on Gragg Prong in Roseboro as well. I know most of the forest up here from mountain biking and riding dirt bikes. I am working on an XR10 build so I am always searching for a good "true crawling" spot. Everything I have found so far has been trailing with good rock crawling sections.

Beacon Heights is a pretty good spot. I shot a video there a few years back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpQ2IEMdFoY |
