NORTH TEXAS MISFIT TACOS: BBNP trip April 6-9 2017

I think @Suprajim54 and I were planning on meeting up around 4am ish. I can do whatever time works though. It would be neat to have 4-5 trucks all lined up headed out.

 

Heck ya. Let me know where y'all want to meet

 

Who all has impact wrench?

 

I have an electric impact gun.

 

Hey I'm possibly thinking about making this trip and I'm in the garland/mesquite area and would meet up and caravan with you from the dfw area ? Would that be cool ?

 

That sounds great. I think another head count might be in order to make sure everything is covered (meals, gear, etc.).

 

For sure, no problem at all. More the merrier!

 

Agreed. Dont want to have 15 people and food for 11.

I'm in and ill have a +1.

 

What moring are you leaving ? Wednesday night Thursday moring ?

 

Early early Thursday morning is the plan so far.

 

I will be driving in from San Antonio but maybe i can take that route on the way home....

Terlinjua is the first stop!

YES!!!! Everyone check all your fluids, bolts, tires, lights, winch (if you have one), everything! We are going to be 8+ hours from home so make sure everything is good. My light just came on for an oil change so that will happen this week.

Yes

Bacon and eggs is one of my favorites!

Find an old OJ bottle or something.

If you use a bottle you can mark the sides with how many eggs to use...

I have a 18v ryobi impact drill

Absolutely man! We already have a large group so we will have to make sure we get large camps or camps that are next to each other.

@thedrewsifer you showed me a picture of a large camp on your phone. What was the name of that one?

I would really like to take @RedBeard1 's advice and stay at Terligua (west side of park)the first night, then Talley 3 & 4 the 2nd night (close to Mariscal Canyon Rim Trail), then i am open... i was thinking something in the mountains or close to it... I know my GF said she wants to see some waterfalls.

 

That one was Glenn springs 1, there is a Glenn springs 2 quite close by.

 

I should really check the forums more often... going to see if i can get of work and maybe make this trip.

 

Just as an FYI, dogs are not allowed off the roads or out of camping spots.

I see the spot on your map. It doesnt seem to be that far of a drive from the Talley campsites, would make for a short drive and would allow time for a morning hike on the trail to see Mariscal Canyon.

I need to do another head count now...

 

For sure, plus its right on black gap so that can be done as well. Its a great camp site!

 

Big enough for 8 trucks??

 

i dont think 8 would fit, especially with RTT's. we would have to use the glenn springs 2 site as well or stick with the grouped sites down by the river.

 

LET ME KNOW IF I AM MISSING ANYONE

11 People currently going!
@Zac of all trades +2
@Suprajim54 +2
@thedrewsifer +2
@Geremy +1
@ETXTacoma +2
@jorasanu10 +2

 

Glenn springs is about 1 mile apart. That site was huge but im not sure we could get 8 trucks in there. Would the 6 we currently have be tight or would we have a bit of chill space?

 

6 would be tight but if park right and take into account how everyones tents fold we could do it. Someone who does not have an rtt can park in the entrance of the site also to free up some space. I think its doable.
