Default How many of you use your XJ for rock crawling?

Doesn't seem like many people on here are into rock crawling at all. Or at least not many people post pictures of it or anything. Seems like the majority of members here are into mud and dirt more than the rocky stuff.

I guess I do forget that not everyone lives in a part of the country with geography for crawling.

We don't have a lot of rock around here to crawl on. But what we do have, I enjoy it. I'd love to do more crawling, that will come when I move out of here.

Us Southerners prefer rock bouncing. Crawling is for babies.

I grew up on the east coast, but didn't get into Jeeps until after I moved to Arizona. All that dirt looks like fun to play in, reminds me of Connecticut.

Here are a few pics from my last trip out in Florence Junction, AZ.

I started wheeling 10 years ago and learned shortly that mud tears **** up and is lame and takes no skill at all so I switched to Rock crawling. About 9 years ago
