I have done a small section. I would love to do Mariscal canyon. Be sure you have enough flow, I haven't been out there since the end of 2023, but the water was a trickle.
I bought a Cargo Craft trailer, I think they are GA based. My local dealer let me spec it out however I wanted. I had a beefier frame put in a heavier axle. I felt the build quality was adequate for my needs
I have hunted the opener since 2002, I might have missed a year or two in there. The quality varies year to year with some years being much better than others. Last year was a bit tougher, but it is always great to get out on the Plains the 3rd weekend of October. One of the highlights of my...

Big Bend State and National Park. The highway between them is the prettiest drive in Texas IMHO. Problem is your toy hauler is probably to big to take on that stretch. Black Gap WMA near the North entrance to BBNP has hunting, you will need a permit. They also have free camping last time I...

I have an REI Base Camp 6, it is a great tent, but it takes awhile to properly setup with all the guy lines and staking required to ensure it will handle bad weather. My Kodiak 10x14 is much faster and no guy lines required. It will handle bad weather. I just a 18V impact drill and lag bolts...
