    Caprock State Park TX - Anywhere to hang in campgrounds?

    I really want to get to this place. The pictures look fantastic. Has anybody camped or backpacked with a hammock there? Thanks!

    There are some sites with hanging options for a hammock or two, but if you need more than that, from what I recall, you may need to bring a stand.

    If one is on a solo hang, most of the state parks can work but that Turtledog back up is the way to go.

    It really is a roll of the dice as some parks may have a few sites with several options. Those are the ones that Murphy's Law has a ground dweller or tornado baiter typically there first it seems.

    I found a couple trees in the primitive area, but it was after some head scratching.

    Thanks guys. You've confirmed my suspicions... Turtledog in the car when car camping.
