Rally Point Details:
I have 40 acres on the Terlingua Ranch. This property is completely off grid and without cell service of any kind. It's a great place to just unplug and check out the stars.
pew pews are ok but please do not be a jackass or unsafe or you will be asked to leave.
It's a good 8-9 hr drive from where I live in Pflugerville (including stops for gas and groceries) so I'd like to get a relatively early start.
Plan on leaving by 7am and hope to arrive around 4pm. I usually get groceries and top off gas in Alpine before heading south.
The property is 45 min from Terlingua and a little over an hour to the National Park.
Plan on camping on my property but spending the day checking out the park (Black Gap Road, Santa Elena Canyon, etc. ) and Terlingua.
The property can accommodate several rigs and I don't think you necessarily need 4WD though high clearance makes it easier to get into my property as the "driveway" is a bit of a bumpy entry.
