Took about 2.5 hours to reach the top. Just a single 6s 1300mAh battery. Gotta love this new electronics setup from 3Brothers RC.

The Southwest is an amazing outdoor environment, as long as you can tolerate the heat. It doesn't bother me too much, but after about 4 hours on the trail, it's time for a break. I'll post more photos and videos later on.

I've been to the arid side of CA a few times and as someone from New England, can't say I'm a fan lol. I prefer our smaller granite rocks and wet weather
 
This rock formation from today is quite different than the usual red sandstone we crawl on. It much harder than sandstone and covered in razor-sharp projections. The traction is amazing, but it eats tires quickly. We are out here testing a set of the OEM KM3's, and they are holding up very well on this surface. While we typically see small chunks of this rock no larger than a basketball, this formation is hidden way out in the back country.

After three hours of crawling and hiking, I had bits of rubber missing from my hiking boot. The KM3's held up quite well. This isn't something to fall down on while hiking.

it's like Mars or something, very interesting.

New England has granite bedrock, large granite stones from glaciers and granite field stones piled into about 240,000 miles of walls and that's it.

By viewing the picture below, you have now seen 90% of New England forests lol

Glad you are enjoying. It's fun to share photos from all of our areas to learn more. While I like my "go fast" machines, my true love are crawlers. Relaxing to be out and alone in nature.

A crawler is the best travel buddy you will ever buy. ;)
 
Idk if I should feel better or worse about my ability to get a 1:10 4x4 crawler through a few gates after watching this lol
