Bummer - Already planned camping trip in Ozarks for this weekend.

Which trails did you end up doing? If you didn't get a chance the Christmas Mountains trail is something I highly recommend. I believe its the highest elevation off-road trail in Texas - did a few google searches to see if maybe something in Guadalupe National Park was higher but couldn't...

nerd alert - One of my post trip work items is to create a spreadsheet of all the sites in the park with key information pulled from multiple sources so I can more easily plan my next trip to make sure I maximize the time needed to explore.

Went to Big Bend Ranch State Park for a week with my son a few weeks ago. This was my first trip to this park, but have been to Big Bend region many times. I decided to catalog the trip only using my phone and gopro and have shared via Youtube...

Looking forward to seeing pics of this one.

btw - i just came back through BBNP when returning from the BBRSP and there was some construction on the road up into the Chisos Basin which created a huge traffic jam for people wanting to enter the basin. I'm not certain how long this will last but it may impact the number of vehicles...

just got back from big bend ranch state park so will pass on this one, but it should be a great trip.

FYI - Central Texas group is doing weekly trips every weekend in October: Chasing Campfires Presents: Camp Every Weekend in October Challenge - Overland Bound - location will change every week. Might be a good opportunity to combine efforts with both groups.

jeez. you are setting the bar very high. my personal goal was to camp once a month for the rest of the year. feeling defeated.

Had a great time. What happened to the sunshine that was forecast?? At least the temps were cool. Thanks Jaime and Carol for planning and organizing trip. Great job!

heading out now. hope to arrive before dark.

Plan to leave DFW around 3:30 Friday afternoon so arrive somewhere around 7ish with son, dogs, and another friend in his rig. Anything planned for Saturday in terms of trails/exploring?

Yes pets allowed - its public land. Just follow leave no trace principles please.

looking at GPS coordinates in gaia - is this part of national forest? It doesn't show up as public land on any of the overlays I'm using.

Should be able to make this - may also have a buddy tag along in his rig.

At this point is there a tentative date set for the day trip?

I'm down for a day trip so something relatively close to DFW, but pretty much past the point of overnight camping for a few months unless we get a lucky cooler weather weekend.

are the BRA parks around Possum Kingdom lake any good? not really dispersed but free and close to the lake.
