Calling all G's in Texas

I have been noticing more and more lifted G's on the streets and especially the forums that are from Texas. Is anyone down for a trip to Hidden Falls Adventure Park in Marble Falls? I plan to go soon as im only 45min from there but it would be cool to get a group together soon. Stock or lifted, anyone is welcome!

I am interested; I will be in Africa until late October however. I have been planning on doing an off-road park trip at some point.

I am 95% complete with my truck, but depending on the type of terrain, may have to throw some 35s on my stock 18s vice 20s.

I am in Houston

I have done the the same, I run a 305/55/20 ridge grappler on the street and a 295/70/18 trail grappler on the trail

Sounds like fun, probably more so later in the year when it cools off... I may have to look at getting a bit more underside protection if we hit any trails rated higher than a level 2.
Let's put the word out and see how many local G drivers are interested.

I think we should be okay on anything up to a level 3. ive been all through the park with much less of vehicles before. Yes, waiting till it cools off a bit would be ideal. So who all is in? :-)

I'll be running some more robust skids by fall hopefully, but don't plan on doing anything very rocky. I'd like to keep my body panels intact

If it’s late October I’d do my best to join in the festivities!

I likely won't be able to join. My fall is pretty stacked since I am out of the country and the truck isn't done, but will stay tuned in so I can link up at some point as I would definitely like to.

I'd be up for a trip down! Haven't been to hidden falls yet and have been wanting to. Keep me posted if this starts to become a reality! I'm mainly on instagram @jacwagn
I also may be able to help y'all with underbody protection. Let me know what you're looking for!
