Hey everyone! This still on? Planning on starting camp here then spending a few days on big bend.
Yes sir, are you in the Austin area? The organizer and I are meeting today to game plan. You're more than welcome to join us. We're meeting at the High Country gastropub at 3pm today. It's in Round Rock

Awesome, we will be there! Anyone have decent Gaia files for big bend and the surrounding area?
Just want to confirm the address.

That's the one!
I was on the fence between Gaia and OnX Off-road. I went with OnX in the end. It's got a number of trails mapped already.

This is what I found from Gaia. Looks like it has most everything you got as well.
Few last minute questions.
What the fuel situation? I have 2 5 gallon tanks I would be willing to leave at home.
Are we doing comms? I have both Ham and GMRS. Any other things I may be missing since I didn’t get a chance to connect with you all?

for fuel, I typically fill up in Alpine and also carry a 5gal tank. We can also fill up in Terlingua if needed. I'm happy to offer the 5gal to anyone who needs it.
For comms, Joe has a couple handheld motorola radios but I don't know what technology they use. I believe it's GMRS.
Food is the only other thing I think we discussed. We'll plan to stop at Porters Grocery in Alpine to stock up.
