Lake Michigan lakefront - lots of breakwater rock, definitely have to be selective to find areas that a crawler can handle.

Rib Mountain State Park: No crawler pics from here, but it's a great spot. Just have to be courteous of hikers, or the rangers get a bit testy:

This is my pile of rocks just outside my house. I plan to grow it much larger, but the required equipment hasn't been built yet, haha.

I just flat told my wife. She saw me skinning the ground with my weedeater and asked what I was doin....Oh nothing, killing some ground hornets. Then I started moving rocks from her landscaping and she was on to me. She's pretty understanding though. I let her run it a few times, plus I've got four deep holes at the top of my course that I'll fill up with mud and bog my Pede, so the nephews love it.

He has the best luck at finding hard bodies at the junk stores. HD, if you ever find a 1/6 scale Ford Ranger or GIJoe Willys for cheap, you know where to send them, haha.
