This is where we usually start.


There is a trail that leads up to the top


Then once your at the top you could spend 3+ hours up there and not hit the same spot twice

i live in concrete but am always down to do some crawling.... so someone pic a date and lets see if we can get something going. Also kinda wanted to know how many people would be interseted in starting up a north sound club. WPRCCA, and WARCRC do comps but 90% of them are all down south and with gas prices the way they are its hard to make them all..

Had a great time at Larabee. It was the first time I got to take my Creeper out and challenge it.

Here's the "playground"

small climb

fun descent, it did shoot the gap at the bottom. On one try it rode out a bit of a nose wheelie

yes there are a couple of clubs around to check out... comp and scale comps are done by WARCRC.org and then there is wprcca.com and they do comps also. there are alot of crawl spots pretty local...no indoor crawl places... its not that bad here weather wise... (it's not 75 and sunny all the time though. just have to dodge the raindrops!!!)

Default Squalicum Park

Has anyone ever been to this place? It's on Squalicum Rd., between Guide Meridian and the marina. The old Pacific Concrete batch plant used to be here. Bellingham put in a park with a baseball field and some walking trails. The city seems to use the space beside the park to store building materials. There is a bunch of guardrails and granite slabs....

Then there are two laydown areas that have all different size rocks and boulders. I had a ton of fun with the crawler, and with a little work this place could be incredible. Pulling some weeds and some strategic rock placement would make this place comp worthy.
