Would like to depart NLT 1600.

Yeah won't make that since I start a new job that week, but I can meet you down at Lake Whitney later on so you don't have to rush your drive or anything.

Wife and I were planning a camping trip in Bend that weekend for our one year anniversary. Hopefully I can catch the next one!

Two members have received GPS for Friday night camp rendezvous. 4 weeks is approaching quickly. I am looking forward to meeting everybody.

I thought Texas was all private property? How did you find 150 miles of backroads? I usually go to Arkansas to do all my off roading. I live in the DFW area.

County roads are available to us. Working with what we've got. Come join us for a cool scenic run in our backyard.

 

[Alyce]

We back road all the time around Whitney, Blum Hillsboro area. Beautiful land.

 

[Laud]

Three weeks is just around the corner. Looking forward to this!

I'm new to the group and thinking about rolling on this trip, what do I need to know? Would I need to book my own campsite for either night?

 

[joel chambers]

I am looking to go but I am not seeing the start point or time to meet. I see a start time of 1700 at Lake Whitney, but where? Can you please send me more information please?

 

[Laud]

Would I need to book my own campsite for either night?

Negative, just RSVP and the first camp site GPS will be sent to you. The locations are free.

 

[Laud]

Can you please send me more information please?

Message sent.

 

[OffPath]

Sounds good. I've RSVP'd, can you please provide the details?
