Planning Ahead!

[SA Bill]

It's been 2 months since I was last in BB. Time to lock in the spring trip!

I like to go around new moon to maximize stargazing so I looked at March and April dates near new moon. I then went to Recreation.gov to see if one of my favorite sites in the Basin was available. The site I really wanted wasn't available either month; it's popular! After some back and forth, I've reserved one of the other sites for April 2 - 5. BB here I came...again!!

I'm thinking about a run to Davis Mountains SP for two days before dropping on down to BB. Good observing up on Skyline Drive in Davis Mountains.

Anyway, I now have something to look forward to over the winter and early spring.That's a good thing!

Sounds like you have got it all worked out. What Basin site is so popular??? and why do you like it so much?

Good to plan ahead!!

Ft Davis is well worth the visit. I spent two days there after a trip to BIBE a couple of years ago. The campsites are pretty and the hiking is great. I hiked over the hill to the fort and spent several hours exploring there. Take your food with you as there is very little to buy in Ft. Davis.
