Interstate State Park
Taylor's Falls, MN


The leaves are falling. Sunrises are getting later, and sunsets getting sooner . Hell, you can even smell it in the air... It's that time of the year again.

This is MNRCRC's 11th annual Howl Krawl! This scaler event has been our finale each year since the beginning. This is tradition."thumbsup"

Scary Details:
Sunday Oct 30th
Interstate Park
Taylors Falls, MN
11:00 AM

This will be a very casual trail ride. We will meet in the parking lot of Interstate Park and walk the trail leading to the campgrounds. It is an awesome trail with plenty of fun terrain to challenge any scaler.

Keep in mind, this trail ride will probably last at least 2 or 3 hours and take us far away from the parking lot. I would recommend bringing a backpack or something to carry all that you need on the trail. Some things I would recommend bringing:
-extra batteries
-spare parts
-basic tools
-lunch/snack
-water

Fees:
-MN State Park parking permits are required, but are available at the park for either a daily pass for $5 or a year pass for $25 (good at any MN state park).
-Otherwise no fee!!!

Directions:(map)
From the South: Take I-35 north. Take the Taylors Falls Exit, Hwy 8 East. Follow 8 approximately 22 miles. The entrance to the park office is located on the right hand side of the road at the only stop light in Taylors Falls. Stay to the right as you enter the parking lot.

From the North: Take I-35 south. Take the North Branch Exit, Hwy 95 East. Drive approximately 22 miles, passing through downtown Taylors Falls. At the stop light (intersecting hwy 8 ) continue straight. Stay to the right as you enter the parking lot.

From the East: Take Hwy 8 west into Minnesota. After crossing the St Croix River, turn left at the first stop light. Stay to the right as you enter the parking lot.


I hope to see you there!!!"thumbsup"
 
I don't have a truck yet but could I come to watch? I regret selling my rig last year. I wish I knew about you guys then or I would have kept my stuff.

It's just a trail run, so feel free to hike along with us and chat about RC.

Thanks for those of you that made it out today. Was a good time and we only had one breakage.

It's in the "pothole" park portion. There are a bunch of hiking trails and we follow those for a while.

This is the side that we do most of our comps.

Super fun trail stomp! I was a little tardy for roll call pics on parking lot rocks, but Ole #6 and Rick Grimes were able to catch up to the group early on for a very fun afternoon! Never walked the trail that far down towards campgrounds before, the cars werent too bad!:lmao: Lots of fun terrain on that end of the trail, glad there was no major breakages and we all had fun! Thnx guys!

( YES Nicklepimp, RICK GRIMES!):lmao:
 
I also had a blast! Thanks Dana, for the last-minute parts delivery and the ride. Thanks to everyone who made it out, it is always a good time. It is always a highlight for me to see family members crawl together, and doubly so when the kids do as still as the old man. Nice driving, Matt!
 
The boys and myself had a great time! Looking forward to the next event. Its been great getting to know you guys. And Phil, Matt wants to know when he can clean your truck?
