Another day on the AZ granite

[Offroader5]

Here's the second outing for this rig. Last time out I broke the chassis and the servo horn...this time out, it came back unscathed. I did get a good roll on film this time though :lol:

The first song has a couple of swear words in it in two spots...so I guess we'll call it NWS

nice location where in AZ is it?

 

[Offroader5]

About 10 miles southeast of Florence. It's the only area out there in the middle of the desert with these huge granite boulders.

Yeah, I suppose it does. It is a very high traction rock though...so I need to give the rock credit too It will climb even steeper grades when I get the limiting strap servo installed on the front axle to keep the nose down "thumbsup"

Looks like fun man - I havn't been down there in a couple of years. No rock like that around here, I just have these to play with...

[2JSC]

Offroader5 - is that area south of Freeman Rd?

 

[Offroader5]

I believe there's a Freeman road out there...if you know the area, it's out off of the Florence-Kelvin hwy at the road to Cochran.

 

[2JSC]

Ok - thats farther east then.

 

[Rich Trujillo]

Nice Vid

 

[Erin]

Is this the area just west/ a bit north of that intersection? Meaning towards Florence itself.

 

[Offroader5]

Here is where it's at:

[Erin]

Thanks for the map, I'm gonna have to check that out, only about a 45 min from my house. I thought it was the western side due to my map not showing much terrain on that side. If you ever want a tag along, let me know, most of my wekends are free.

The pushpin on the map is off just a bit, but when you turn onto Cochran road just look east and you'll see all the boulders. There's probably bout 10-20 acres of boulders out there in the middle of nowhere, It's a beautiful area too.

Well, when your out there...it's fairly obvious where the boulders are since it's mostly flat everywhere around them....but because your being so analytical about it :lol: This is exactly where I crawl at:
