If the Paluxy River level is right, put your hands and fee in the riverbed tracks of the giant beasts who once stalked here. We'll hike six to eight miles on the Cedar Brake Trail, about four hours. Bring a daypack with water, lunch, snacks, and water shoes you don't mind getting wet when fording the Paluxy before  changing into more comfortable trail shoes or boots. Assemble at either a point TBD in the park (10 AM) or at 8 AM to form carpools at the far east end of the Mockingbird Station DART parking lots, near the Kroger store. Participation is limited to twelve people who contact the hike leader in advance. Note that the date of this event is now reset to October 14.  Trip rated: Moderate.

Want to get away for a short backpacking trip to the mountains?  The Ouachita trail is a beautiful mountain hike that begins in Eastern Oklahoma about 3.5 hours from Dallas.  The Dallas Sierra Club is hosting a trip starting from the Winding Stair trailhead (34.715138, -94.6780312).  Whether you are looking for your first overnight backpacking experience, want to test out your latest gear or just enjoy a weekend in the woods, this is the hike for you.

We will meet Saturday at 10:30 AM at the trailhead.  The trail to the south-east is well maintained and amongst trees.  On Saturday the hike will be 4.5 miles long and we will make camp at Red Springs.  We will spend a lovely evening of camaraderie and stories (some true).  On Sunday we will hike to the Big Cedar trailhead (2.5 miles all downhill – really).  A car will be available to shuttle drivers back to the Winding Stair trailhead.  You can then return to Dallas (or to your next destination).

Trip details and forms are available here.  For more information contact Jim Robarge (robargeDSC@gmail.com) Trip rated: Easy. Leader: Jim Robarge Send Email
