I'm going to do an overnight at Texoma on Saturday April 27. Anyone is welcome to come with. I don't really have a plan yet, so I'm pretty flexible on what goes down. We could hike in a mile or 2 and camp and hike out. We could park a vehicle at each end and hike in half way, camp, then hike out the rest of the way and shuttle back. I rate this trail as a medium difficulty, so if you aren't used to hiking, just know that there are some elevation changes and a bit of rugged terrain. I plan on being there about 11 or 12 on Saturday.
This is one of my favorite trails in the area. I did a trip report that highlights some of my favorite spots.

I'd probably be up for the hike/shuttle deal.

I'll be there. It will be a good warm-up for my start of a portion of the AT the following week.

Ok. Looks like we're going to do the whole trail. Ray, do you mind leaving your truck where we left it last time? We can pick you up there and then you can shuttle us back. Since we are going to be hiking a bit more, lets meet at 10a.
Does that work for you?

Yep can do the truck at the western parking area (that same one we used). However, I will have to decide next week for go-no-go for launch. I've had a knee issue for a time. Awoke yesterday and told myself all day "make an appointment to see the doc", then didn't do it. Went to bed with a heating pad and awoke today, almost pain free....Guess my knee decided to behave before the doc took a look.
