​​​So far I've gone to the Cave Without a Name near Boerne, TX, Sonora Caverns, Carlsbad Caverns, then I tried to do the off road trail at Guadalupe National Park, but it was closed. Tomorrow will be Big Bend where I plan on stuff there for at least 3 days.

Had a lovely failure of a BRAND NEW line out at Big Bend... Trail repaired it but not the LR's fault. Poor quality parts fault!

Crimped my @ss I could simply twist & pull it apart using no force whatsoever..

I’m down in C Springs if you run into any issues.

To be aware, we are to get a few inches this afternoon into the evening. I wouldn’t plan on any of the cool guy trails while here as CO 4x4 and rescue keeps posting about all the recoveries they’ve had to do.
