San Antonio

so this is the place my wife and I are trying to go to. our first ever trail(s) for her 4runner and my taco. we have been planning for a month now. I know they have levels depending on your vehicle and mods but from your experience can a stock Tacoma/4runner do decent there? also, we are big campers! ready to take it on!

 

A stock taco can do level 3s no problem. Level 4s are very risky for a stock truck. Area B is primitive camping, but includes showers, flushing toilets, a small store and a food truck. I love going to Hidden Falls.

 

sweet baby jesus. this is very new to us! hidden falls is the closest to us and would be a great first experience! primitive is my thing for sure. simple. thanks man!

 

No problem. Some of us go every weekend. There's even a few there right now.

 

def love to join! I literally work 1 weekend every 5 weeks. so I literally have a lot of time to look at the new truck and ponder....never putting any real miles on her, lets go! I need to find out what a Tacoma can do !

 

Just ask here for anybody to show you around the park and there will usually be a few volunteers

 

You can even pick up on the action, here!

Pushing your wheels out will cause your tires to hit the fender flares like Josh said the close to the body they are less likely to have to trim

Morning

 

So I haven't had much time to explore the area, ingot here last February 2019 was put on night shift and then sucked away for training for 3 months ad then deployed where I am currently... When I get back I have some 60+ days of leave k need to burn through (not all at once obviously) but I'd like to take some trips... Off roading in Texas is difficult (for me anyways) as I am used to states with an abundance of public use lands (Alaska, WV, PA, Arizona and even CA)

What are some good "overlanding" style routes ?

Don't hate on the overlanding term, I don't have fancy Gucci gear lol. Just a chinesium rtt and rci rack.

 

Someone will chime in. I don’t go anywhere.

 

There are several routes in Texas that we can travel, they are routes that others have done. If you look at Tx overland on FB you can get the routes so you can load into your map navigation. There is also the state parks some have areas in which you can check things out, and then there is Big Bend National Park and Big Bend State Park. They take some time to get to but there are several off road trails to see, just need to plan a few days to go and see it as it is a big area.

No hate on the overloading word, its just a figure of speech in my mind to discuss routes that we all want to explore in.

 

Morning SA, fighting a sinus cold this morning...
