The only places that i know of are Sunset Ridge in Rio Grade City, Hidden Falls in Marble Falls and Xtreme Off Road Park in Crosby. I have not been to any of these but would love to check them out some day. Also, don't forget Padre Island beaches.

I believe I'm free the first weekend of February as well if anyone wants to run down the beach or wherever.

It appears I'll be free that weekend too. Which park has the most suitable (wide) trails for us? I guess that's the big question

Soon definitely, I’ve been wanting to do a Texas run for a long time. My personal thought is hidden falls adventure park. There’s tons of trails a full-size truck can fit down of all levels of difficulty. That place is awesome. And I’ve been meaning to get together with hodgepodge for what seems like forever lol. Life just gets in the way sometimes.

We do hidden falls in the Scout with our binder clubs and it is a great park. There are a few places out west and Gilmer up North but big rocks can hurt. Also did Big Bend and two days of trails (30+ miles each/avg. 6-8 hours) was a blast. Perfect for the PW but every bit of 12 long hours away. Can't wait for the kids to be a little older so I can leave them at the house and do the whole southern routes and Black Gap without the threat of mutiny.

Mutiny is overrated! I think we could do something close like the track in Crosby or Down South then make the trip to Hidden falls. Maybe we need a meet up at an adult establishment to set something up.

Yep, even worse I was in an overflow area that apparently gets 1000 gallons a day of water.

Going to run PINS at the end of the month with a group of guys from Dallas (Toyota's mostly), Friday Nov. 30 through Sunday Dec. 2. Let me know if anyone wants to join us and I can get in touch for details.

I'm in Houston and need to get offroad a couple of times before I head to Moab in April/May. Anyone headed out anywhere close (San Antonio, Waco, etc.)
