This place looks larger than Hidden Falls in Marble Falls, and the pricing looks way better.

Don't know if we have two winches. Most of the stuff there isn't too bad. We got tow ropes if anyone does get stuck though.

No - I have been to both and HF is way larger. The great part about Bridgeport is that it is affordable to get into ($25) and all the trails are almost right on top of each other so you do not spend a lot of time coming off of one trail until you are on the next trail. I spent a summer going up there a lot and would be worn out by noon wheeling with some buddies because all the trails would just keep you driving trail after trail. It is a great bang for the buck - but does not have the size, views, or camping like Hidden Falls has.

Looking at going to Bridgeport towards the end of Feb/ early March if anyone is interested. Mostly DD rigs so probably none of the too crazy Minos trails.

Man, I'd love to go to something like this. I need to get a little more work done to my truck before I'd feel comfortable taking it on some trails, but I really need to take the plunge. I've spent my whole life working on racecars, I have no experience offroad.

No worries; nobody in the group will be looking to beat up their vehicles. Mainly we are looking to test a few things out before Jambo. This will be my first wheeling trip with this rig so I am curious to see how it goes.

Cool. Keep an eye on the other thread and I will confirm once it is set. Right now it looks like a Sunday is most likely.

CBs are nice but I think only a few in the group have them. I still need to get one installed but I have a handheld Midland unit that is working for now. I am really curious to see how the trails have changed since I have not been out there in a few years. I want to get back to the off road park Tolar as well. When it first opened it was kind of weak but it has been there a few years now so the trails should be getting rutted in decently.

Very cool, thanks. I'll see if I can get off work that weekend. If not, I'll definitely make a future trip.

I should be in for this trip if it lands on a Sunday. I may or may not have a CB installed by then but probably not since I have not seen a way to mount the antenna on the back that I like yet.

I am pretty sure there will be more trips to either Bridgeport, Tolar, or Gilmer this summer. Probably Hidden Falls as well.

Awesome. Is there a DFW area 4Runner Facebook group or something like that?
