The trip was great. It is a really nice place, great wheeling for everybody even fullsize friendly. Fredricksburg also has some kick ass food too.
okay I just wrote a whole long story and got logged off before submitting, so here's the short and sweet version:
Trees Ranch Rocks, a solid 4 hour drive from here, probably only about 2 from San Antonio.
Lots of great terrain and a variety of trails, with plenty of shade which makes it my choice for summer wheelin.

Mario, recognize this rig? Some really cool guys from the Uvalde area in similar rigs (one GMC Jimmy, the other was a Dodge Power Ram) that we wheeled with most of the weekend:

looks like fun. how long were the trails? or was it more like little play areas?
the trails are really long, the ones that we were on were not extremely hard except in a few areas but we were on the easier trails. Most of the trails follow the creek bed.
yeah, thats josh and chuy romo. The guy in the blue dodge is Earl. They're from my hometown. Very nice guys. Chuy does welding for me now and then.
Yeah Chuy and Earl...I couldn't remember Earl's name
He borrowed a semi from his work and hauled both their rigs and one other down there in it. They also slept in the A/c :D
the place is huge, the trails are long and most of them don't have go-arounds. It also takes a while to get to some of the trails, like a half hour or more from camp on trails just rough enough to beat you up and keep you moving slow
how big is the place?
freakin huge! They call it TX's largest offroad park. I would bet it's somewhere along the lines of 5000 acres or more
I'm jelous that you guys went without me, but I'll get over it seeing as how i'm in Germany right now drinking some of the best beer ever!!! Next time you go let me know and you can bunk up at my place, its only like 30 min away.
Yeah...germany, that's rough! Get in touch when you get back in town!
Cody was holding out on us...

journalism at its finest.
