There's iron hill park in Newark, woodley park off mt. Lebanon in Wilmington area off 202.

What kind of truck you have?

I stopped by Blue Diamond a little while back and it appears the sole focus is the road course. The dirt track has been abandoned and is unusable.

I got a SCX10 that I ripped apart (been deep in water and muck too many times:lmao and was in need of a rebuild...so while I have it apart, its getting a few new things

Plus a new body - was running a H2 hardbody, swapped that over to a Pro-Line Cherokee with full interior and underbody...so we'll see how that works out

Yeah, I know they are mainly on-road now...but I didn't know if there were areas that were playable..I know G-Force Hobbies used to have something in their shop about crawling, but that was 2 years ago, maybe, and way before they moved....

My primary play areas are Port Mahon and Woodland beach. There are far better places up your way, Woodly Park for example, but I am not into the drive (unless I take the bike!) or the gas used to run up there.

Just joined up here. In pike creek area. I know a good riverbed just into Maryland from Newark delaware!
Also I am a land surveyor and have many jobsites that are great for dirt runs.

 

[02tac]

Can you post a location for the riverbed so we can Google map it?

Biggest problem for me, right now, is that I cannot justify the fuel cost for a run up north just to play with the rock crawler. That and my focus has shifted to RC flight.

 

[bobandcar]

It's in fair hill rec area off appleton road in elkton Maryland.

 

[93firebird]

I may have to check out fairhill. There is at least one spot I know of at Iron Hill. I have an area in my back yard that I am working on too. If the weather ever clears up I hope to do some more work on it. Woodley Park is the best area, there may also be a good spot or two along the red clay creek. Any of you southern folk interested we can meet at my place in Newark and drive up from there.

Were is woodley park?
Were in iron hill is good?

I'd be up to head somewhere I'm using a summit so it's a little bigger

To access Woodley park, there is a small place to park at 1149 Mount Lebanon rd. I have never been up there during the summer, not sure if the ticks might be bad. I have only run there in the late fall.

 

[02tac]

I would like to know if there is any access to below the east side of the Conowingo dam, one heck of a rock field there.

 

[bobandcar]

There's a county park downstream but its on the south side of where the octorora river joins the suskwahanna. <-- spelling bad. Lol

Could probably walk to those rocks but idk about the legal accessibility. On a side note that is where most of the bald eagles nest.

if anyone is still around in newark area i want to get back at it in a couple weekends. Iron Hill is pretty good and local to me, but i do want to check out the mt lebonon area sometime.
pm me if anyone is wanting to get out.

 

[02tac]

Want to get out too, but can't justify a trip up to your area just to run trucks. I may just hit woodland beach as the break water there is decent fun.

If I do get a chance to head up that way I will give you a PM.

 

[bmf24]

sounds good. thinking about heading out tomorrow for a bit.

 

[fullsizecrawler]

[k_bojar]

I don't know of a Delaware crawling group, but there's a couple of eastern PA groups which ain't too far away
