How do you make these maps?

Go to www.maps.google.com and on the left side of the screen you'll see 'Get Directions' and 'My Places'
Click 'My Places' and you'll see 'Create Map'
Right under 'Create Map' there is 'Or create with classic My Maps'
Click that
From there you can name the map, search for places and drop points to add a location on the map.

Regarding Haw River: the west bank on Hwy 64 has a trail that can be very difficult in spots, and access to the huge river rocks and islands.
Umstead State Park, Harrison Ave entrance off I-40: Company Mill Trail starts as an easy trail with optional obstacles, a creek to play in. After crossing the creek you get into more challenging terrain.
Bond Lake Park, Cary: Start from boathouse parking lot. Dirt trail around the lake is an easy trail ride, some roots and optional obstacles, and a rocky creek to play in about halfway through.
Thanks for making the map, it's a great resource!

Thanks for the info. Is the spot marked on the map correct for the Haw river?

On the Haw, you can park on either side of the river - we've been going on the west bank.

Crowders Mountain
Did some scouting out on Crowders Mountain today. Had some great rock formations to play around on. Some real challenging climbs. Only downside is it is about a 25 min walk from the parking lot to the rock formation. It's a great hike to the rocks, I actually drove my SCX10 from the lot to the rocks, played around for about 45 min and drove all the way back down on one battery.
Maybe worth a gtg one of these days.

It was great. Picture #7 was a shot from the bottom of a great hill climb. It was very challenging, had to take some good lines to get up it. Lots of leaves and pine needles to make you slip and slide. But not impossible to get up.
There was a creek pretty close to the entrance, but was too deep for my Jeep. It did have some logs laying across the creek that one could stradle to get across, but if you slipped off you were going into deep water.

I am game for a Crowders Mt gtg soon! I bet Kings Mt State park has some great trails too. I worked there as a kid.

I'm getting my Scx10 in a little over a week and will be going here: https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msi...9&t=h&z=7&vpsrc=1&iwloc=0004ea986deac5aeed927
Anyone in the Winston area is welcome to come join me. This place is right down the road from Hobby Park so we could go down there as well.
I'm going to go by there later today while I'm out and take a look. I haven't been here in quite a while and it looks to be grown over
