Glad you got a good crawl session in! I'm really surprised the Atlas couldn't do it.
Congrats to Ogre, and his brethren sends his congrats as well!

Gravity tends to be a lot kinder to these small scale, lightweight models.I will say this the Atlas and the SCX24's tumbled down the steep hill several times, and I mean some pretty hard bounces all the way down, and they all took it like a champ.
Pretty funny, was going through this thread one of the guys in this video is my friend. I heard his voice and immediately knew it was him. The little green C10 is the first crawler I ever drove on their indoor garage course. He's the guy that's helping me get my rigs set up. I bought my Defender new in the box from a friend of his. The area they're crawling, I wouldn't say, is right out my back door, but within 20 miles or so from home. He's the guy that built this Amazon box truck.Some 24 stuff from a few months ago
I need to go hang out with you, I can't wait for good weather and a long ATV ride.This is an area I'm hoping to take my Defender to this summer, going to have to figure a way to transport it up there as the only way to get there is by ATV. Reminds me a bit of your area Xraycer without the lush green. Rocks are very similar.

Dam that's a beautiful spot for wheeling and bashing,crawling. Or what ever fun you enjoy. Why build a box. Just need some bungee cords. Strap her down and go... or you could just use a backpack to carry the RC, tools, battery. Or whatever else you need to bring out with you sir.... happy bashingThis is an area I'm hoping to take my Defender to this summer, going to have to figure a way to transport it up there as the only way to get there is by ATV.

Hell yeah man. Looks awesome. I so miss living in Boulder,CO. I so got to move back. Miss taken the day long wheeler trips. Suck a Zhen hobby. Just you your bike and nature I love it. Well done bud.
Just gorgeous!
I'm absolutely fine with going off topic. It makes for interesting reads and conversations. I'm guilty of it all the time.I agree, even though we don't have the immense population, those that are moving moving in, don't get it. Same things are happening here, trash, not staying on allocated trails, rudeness when meeting on trails, blasting music out where most of us are trying to get away from all of that. Shocking to us country hicks.
Sorry Xraycer, didn't mean to high jack and derail this thread with ATV stuff maybe should post this stuff on another thread let the crawlers occupy the picture frames. I can just imagine crawling on my ATV through your type of greenery, I love the landscape. And I know.... the ATV'S would ruin it.

Beautiful shots. Where is that?Yes exactly "those" type of people, the same ones that think they need to take their dogs "every" place they go. They pick up the dog waste but leave the bag at the trail head. So when you go to take off on a trail there are 15-20 bags of dog crap laying on the ground by the trailhead gate. A few years back we were on a ride on a Monday of all days, and went to one of our normal spots to take some out of town friends to see a great view from an old fire lookout. We got up there and there were probably 45 or 50 twenty somethings at the Lookout with tents set up all over, hammocks hanging in the trees and music blasting over a Bluetooth speaker. One of the guys came down and asked that we not come up because there were several in their group who had their "medical" substance cards and that they would "FEEL" really intimidated if our group camenup there. We had stopped probably 1/2 a mile below the lookout and thought we heard something but didn't know what it was til we got up there. We tried to let them know that we had some friends from out of town that wanted to see the view but they told us to stay away from the lookout, that we could walk around below to see the canyon. So we complied, 15 years ago we would've been greeted and invited to come on up. We didn't let it ruin our evening or our ride but just seems to be the mentality of those moving in.
