Re: Primitive Camping
Secret spots for some quiet camping..
( just a tip.. in central texas you often have to Carry a ton of water as there are dry camp sites in many locations..)
-Hill country St. natural area is fun.. wilderness camp is a short hike..and I would pack water.
-How bout..North shore of the goodwater trail..( walnut springs camp).
Water from the lake..South shore is the best hike to Sawyer camp but there may be a group there. The good news is there are a lot of spots in the area.
or.. Site number 7 at Dinosaur St. Park..Dry but secluded.
While not known for solitude I have had good luck at the moss lake primitive camping at Enchanted rock SNA.
- its not a very long walk but Grelle LCRA park has few visitors..
and Pace bend while not a backpacking destination and not known for solitude has so many places to camp its pretty easy to find a very secluded spot in the interior.. but the interior is dry..
--The LST is a great choice.. just remember there is no primitive camping until Feb 1 due to hunting.. camping is restricted to established camp grounds during this season. ( water can be an issue here due to Tannin in the streams and the intermittant nature of the streams. )
I will just kick one or two more here for you to think about..
Brazos bend.. ( careful..NA alligators abound..)
4-C trail. bit of a drive from austin..
And my Favorite for solitude in all of Texas is Guadalupe Mountains national park. with a little effort in this place you will be so far away it gets freaky..
have fun.. and leave NO trace...
