Texas Meet October location?

Seeing as how the Sept seems to be taking an eternity to get here, I figured we should plan another one for October sooner rather than later so we don't have to wait as long between meets and everyone can still make plans far enough ahead of time.

So, where we gonna meet in October?

 

So where should we meet?

 

A few suggestions:

Padre Island National Seashore - A good chance to drive through some deep sand. The island is essentially one big long strip of seashore. You can usually go a good 10mi down before the sand gets too deep for 2wd. Could be some surf fishing, BBQ, and a good long 60mi drive down to Mansfield channel (and 60mi back) for those who want a 4wd expedition challenge.

Long Ranch Offroad Park, Llano TX - Some dude who runs an offroad park at his ranch. A good variety of stuff to do; Rocks, Dirt, Climbs, and mud. I had a blast the last time I was there and 2wd can easily drive around the ranch to see some scenery.

Hidden Falls Adventure Park

Barnwell Mountain Recreation Area

 

I wouldn't mind checking out PINS.

It's quite a drive from College Station though.

Ah...reminds me; I need to buy some basic recovery gear.

 

PINS, Wheeling at day, fishing at night? Could be lots of FUN.

South Llano sounds cool too.

I thought jeremiekc was planning one in Killeen @Ft. Hood.

 

I think the park is kinda part of the base lol

my bf went to a meet at barnwell mountain & he loved it

 

llano sounds like it would be cool and coopers bbq is a must

 

Oh yeah, I forgot about Killeen. Maybe because I haven't heard much about it lately. Is there already a thread for it?

 

nothing that i know of but down the road from my house is a place called log jam i just dont like scratchin my truck up i need this meet to be pretty close to bcs i cant drive to padre too far

 

yeah, im all for closer to this neck of the woods for sure. gotta space these TX meets out from time to time. cant keep drivin to BFE everytime. i know TX is a big state and lots have to travel, but it would be nice to jump around the state to accomodate every once in a while

 

Hell ya to Coopers !!! I met the owner of that place this summer, real nice lady.

 

Okay, I sent him a PM to see if he's still planning an October meet for Killeen. If he is I'm definitely not going to take a dump on it and plan another meet anywhere close to the same weekend.

I like the idea of rotating the meet around the state and as such am really contemplating this Barnwell Mountain since the recent meets have been in central TX. We might even draw some folks from Louisiana, Arkansas, or Oklahoma.

In November or December I think I'll be making the long trek out west to Big Bend Ranch State Park which is supposed to have more trails than Big Bend National Park. Maybe we could make a meet of it and even get some folks from New Mexico to come?

 

I will be checking out Big Bend Ranch after Christmas this year.. I will be camping in the Davis mountains 12-26 - 1-2, let me know if you will be in BBRanch SP at during that time. I'll go with ya!

 

Sweet, that just might work out.

 

big bend would be awesome!!!!!

 

I don't know the area, and some have said it is not all "that" great. I am camping not too far away, so I was going to go check it out. Obviously, if it is better than expected.. we should probably plan a trip/camp out there. I was told Big Bend was lame for 4x4, but Big Bend Ranch might be different. If anyone has previous experience, please talk about it.

 

Bummer but and even bigger congrats!!! Time to be a daddy, again lol. Figured out if you are going to give him your truck yet?
