Hidden Falls TX Wheeling Trip

Possibly, how much is the cabin, you just throw an air mattress on it?

 

$242 for 2 days. You can throw whatever you want at it. Just thought I'd offer a place to sleep out of the heat. There is plenty of room it looks like. I'll find out about the mattress from the park. It's only available for Thursday and Friday night. Saturday is already booked. When do you think your going to be coming in?

 

Friday I'll ask to see if Diego can leave Thursday after I get off work but not sure. Ya that works I think the camp site even have electricity so I'll bring extension cord and box fan for sat. What day were you zip lining?

 

Just a heads up y'all, its gonna be packed that weekend. Traditionally holiday Saturdays especially are full of JKU owners, among others, who haven't been wheeling before. Expect to come head to head with groups often. Be especially wary of this if you do trails that get extensively tight, like Greenmile, Greenhorn 2, TRO, and Wildcat to name a few.

 

Thanks for the tip. This will be my first time to this park, any thing I should know?

 

Uh, avoid slick rock at all costs, you'll roll. Wildcat and Bronco Buster are two trails I also like to avoid, high chances of body damage.

The first thing i'd recommend doing is the fence line, open area will give you a good feel for the park. This is North Peak to North Pole or vise versa. I typically head up park road 2 north east until you hit a trail called falls. Go through falls real quick. Either go up Dino Falls into Carnage Canyon (my favorite trail there), and head right when you get back onto the park road (this will lead you back to area B, where you can re-navigate to the fence line), or go straight out of falls, then follow the fence left (north west then west).

DO NOT DO TOYOTA. It is CLOSED for a reason! Creek crossings are ok, like TRO, Greenhorn 1&2, and Royal Gorgue, and can lead to a lot of smacks on the skids but a lot of fun. However, if you still water... don't do it. Vehicles have to be rescued all the time. Do not trust trail ratings as your only source of information, they can be very misleading.

Be sure to go up Jody's Revenge at some point to the tower, you'll be in for an awesome picture:


I almost rolled going down Greenmile the other day, and would not suggest it unless you have a spotter. Going up isn't as bad.

If you're coming in from the south/west, be sure to get J&J's BBQ Breadkfast Tacos on the way up! You'll never eat more amazing food for cheap in your life.

The bathrooms at area B have showers.

Besides that, just have fun! You can get lost really quickly so be sure to have a trusted navigator at the head of the pack.

If Big Bend plans fall though, i'll totally join y'all out there. I live in Cedar Park (duh..) and will be more than willing to trail guide. I'm out there twice a month.

 

Cancel big bend go to the park, problem solved

 

Thanks for all the advise! Good into right there ^

Not to wish you ill will but I hope plans change

 

Who all is actually in?

 

At the risk of sounding like a wimp, yes I'm interested! Not sure if I'd be there Thursday night though. Anyone else?

 

Haha thanks, but I'm at Hidden Falls at least every other week, need a change of scenery on occasion

 

What's that metal thing in the middle of the photo? Is that some kind of prison toilet, where it's out in the open for everyone to see?

 

Heater, ac on top

 

Lol, prison toilet

We will be there on Thursday until at least Saturday night maybe even Sunday if everyone else is staying.

I do only have the cabin for Thursday and Friday though. We will have to use the tents Saturday night.

 

I'll be there until Sunday for sure

Probably wont be attending this time, but if yall get any damage that you don't want to risk driving all the way home with, I'm a twenty minute ride east of the park and can help out to some extent.

 

We need to plan a date to go out there and tear shit up asap

 

We did its July 1-3
