Hi Shane,
Great write up on your hike- Thanks!! Have you experimented with water shoes
other than Crocs? I hadn`t really thought about having everyone get them ,
but it sounds like they are necessary , given the number of water crossings.
How long does it normally take you to drive to the trail from DFW? I think
we will be doing at least 1 Fri, Sat, Sun trip (the boys will be in school)
. Thanks again.
Pat
