Screwed the post up somehow, anyway I'll try again.
Okie chiming in...
Trust me I want to meet up with you guys in Texas but if your ready to travel out of state Disney is worth trying out.
It's free and requires no permits.
Disney Oklahoma is 5 hours from Dallas. Look it up if you have never been or heard of it. Don't go during the big meat unless you like huge ass crowds and tons of razors and rookies.
We have mild and steep rocky wooded trails, sculpted rock bottom trails created by dam water releases and long river bed runs. You can get gas within a mile of the trailheads, you can eat at 4 different restaurants within 2 miles and there is a state park with shower camping basically onsite. 2 car washes and a Napa auto parts store a mile away. A full size grocery store 2 miles away. Several small cabin resorts onsite if you don't like camping. I can even sleep around 10 people at my condo if needed.
( beer payments required )
It's a very scenic place, you wheel below the dam on the river. Look it over, I'm sure a few of you guys have been there. Not saying it's the best but it's pretty dam good, lots of people travel from far away to wheel here.
