Hi everyone. I am new to the site and pretty new to Texas. My husband is military so we just moved here last year. We live 2 hours N of Dallas and are looking for a good place to camp sometime before the end of the month because my husband may/may not be getting a bit of time off work. We are looking to go to a place that has really great hiking and tent camping because that is what we love to do. Plus, several of his friends may be coming with us so we need plenty to keep a group of young guys and one energetic Lab busy.
Any suggestions?
We have been to Palo Duro Canyon here in Texas and Wichita Mountains in Oklahoma and loved both. We are also planning to go to Copper Breaks this weekend. Lakes/rivers aren't too important to us, because we spend the majority of our time hiking when we go camping. Also distance is a bit of a factor but not the biggest. He may have up to a week off work so we are willing to travel a bit if it means we will find a really great park. We don't get to be here too much longer so we want to make sure to hit all the best parks if we can.
Thanks so much for any suggestions and I am really glad I found this place. Moving far from home (Indiana) has made me feel excited to really get to explore a new part of the country. What better way than camping?
