Anyone here have some good rock crawling spots? - Tex - 04-11-2005 From Woodward and 87th.....go south on Woodward You will see a 6ft tall white fence along the road on your left hand side. On the opposite side of the street you will see two neighborhood streets (townhouses). park on the second street you see (the more south street). Walk across Woodward you will see the rocks on the other side of the fence. It's public property and the fence is there because it's a jog path right there next to the street.
