Tejas Backcountry Sites

The hike up has great views, then you drop down in a valley for the camp sites. They supply tent pads only. We were disappointed in the lack of view and the cold settled in fast. This would be a great site for the summer due to the tree coverage or on windy nights since you’re protected.
