Thanks for the info WT. I have been promising myself to go to LM every year for several, now I will definitely be going in the next few weeks.

Doesn't sound like much for true back-country backpacking though. What recommendations would you have that are relatively near to Austin/SA? Looking for 30+ miles of trail to make an overnighter of it. I am certainly not an avid adventurer (read: just have put in the time), so am not aware of anything closer than Big Bend, Guadalupe Mtns, or Ouchita that would have a good elevation change and trail system.

Thanks again and thanks in advance for more help.
