Kevin from Boerne here again. I tried to put a ride together to BB a couple weeks back but had to pull out due to a change at work. Well things have settled down finally, so let's try this again.
I was thinking a 5 day, 4 night trip; leaving on a Thursday morning and returning home on Monday. My plan would be to cut cross-Texas that morning and enjoy the Hillcountry while heading Southwest. End up in Marathon and entering the national park from there that afternoon. We could meet up along the way, in Marathon, or at the campground. Camping would be 4 nights at Cottonwoods Campground down on the river. It's $15 a night and you can have multiple tents per site so if we get 3 of 4 people coming it would work out cheap enough to split. You'll need to bring your own food provisions as there are no restaurants close. The campground has toilets and running water but no electricity and no showers. It's primitive. There's a state store close by that sells some basic provisions and they had beer last time I was there
Dirt / gravel roads are fine and encouraged, but no plans for soft stuff or single track as I'll be on my Vstrom.
I'll do a poll for the preferred dates and I am sending PM's to those of you who expressed interest in the last attempt at the trip.
