RC crawling at Horseshoe Canyon, Alberta

Post by vintage AE »

This day started out wet and rainy, but a crossed my fingers and it cleared up. Well, more like I went into town, had a pint of beer and some food and it cleared up :lol: :mrgreen:

This is part of Canada's Bad Lands, what ever that's suppose to mean... fun spot to rock crawl, it think is what it means :D

Anyway, lots of fun to be had in the canyon! Enjoy :D

I did not know you were into Crawlers? That looks like a great location and the rock looks super abrasive. I bet you get plenty of traction!

I don't compete, but I do enjoy it. I think I've crawled in some of the best locations in Canada. On the east coast I've crawled on the granite coast line at Peggy's Cove and in the Bay of Fundy where are are the highest tides in the world… during low tide of course and now in Canada's bad lands. I'll have to post some link later to make it easy for people to see.

Unfortunately I was suppose to go wheeling with some Toyota 4WD guys today. I had a bad gutt feeling about it so I went RC wheeling instead. At this location you can't even take your bicycle into. It would be cool to take the taco in there though.

I went wheeling with the guys just last weekend anyway so it's all good.

That sounds like a challenge to me. I'd be down for that. Hope you have a winch for that trail rig, I wouldn't want you to get left behind.

Oh it's on :twisted:

I'm just glad you didn't challenge me with my wraith, man it's so much worse. Too wide, not dig system, it's just a lot more difficult to make it through the same trail as the LCC.
