I'm looking all the time in Western DuPage/Eastern Kane counties. So far I've found a construction lot in West Chicago that had alot of stuff to climb, but that was "cleaned up", so it would now be a better bashing grounds for my Pede and Rusty (I wouldn't recommend Nitro since it's between an old folks home and an insurance office). Then the Target in St Charles has some small, broken up peices of rock around a retention pond on the west end of the property (Check out my avitar for rock type), but that will scratch the crap out of what ever you're running (It's gouging the Duplicolor Spray Can Bedliner on the roof of the cab!) I also recently found what was a property up for rent off of 64/North Ave between We-Go and St.C and next to a Used Truck Dealership (stuff like Ryder, U-Haul, Fed-Ex type medium trucks) that has a bunch of nice round rock piled along the front of it, however I think someone just started to rent it right after I started to pay attention to it. That one is the polar opposite of the rock by Target! If anybody else has suggestions, I'm all ears too

Zack has found a couple in St. Charles and I think there might be stuff by the Naperville store, but I haven't had much opportunity to check it out when working down there.
