rock crawler
Extreme terrain vehicle
A rock crawler is a vehicle designed or modified for traversing extremely rugged terrain, particularly steep rock formations.
These are typically four-wheel-drive trucks or jeeps with high ground clearance, specialized suspension, and low gearing that allows precise control at slow speeds: We watched rock crawlers climb what looked like a vertical cliff face.
The term also applies to the motorsport itself.
Separately, rock crawler names various insects adapted to rocky mountain environments.
