Great American Crawl

When I heard The Great American Crawl was coming to Hot Springs Offroad Park in Arkansas this December, I signed up right away. The event included guided trail rides for mortals, and serious competition for sponsored highly modified rigs.

I probably should have paid closer attention to the weather forecast. Friday wasn’t too bad, but it made for some really scary slick rock climbs. Our group all got to the top of a sketchy stretch without having to winch anyone. But someone in another group slid downhill and flipped over. I heard there were a number of other flipovers, but so far nobody posted any pictures.

I should have taken more pictures, but with the rain and slick trails, I needed to pay close attention. I was happy that we did all four of the Badge Of Honor trails. I already got those badges, but I was able to get 200 points per trail. I ended up heading back Saturday morning.

The event included a Clash Of The Clubs competition. Unfortunately I left because of the rain. But check it out at Clash Of The Clubs.
