- We attempted to put together a quality video of our trip to the incredible Big Bend Ranch State Park in Texas. Big Bend Ranch State Park is the most remote and rugged park in the Texas Parks and Wildlife system. Miles and miles of rocky, rough, and wonderful four wheel drive trails, hiking trails, mountain bike trails, and equestrian trails are at Big Bend Ranch for the enjoyment of the worthy adventurer. We camped at Rincon 1 and Rancherias campsites, far away from another person, the sounds of civilization, or the bustle of society. It is always where I long to be. I love remote areas most. In the 2013 Jeep Wrangler JK, we explored unmaintained, high clearance, four wheel drive roads and trails, and tested the capabilities of the Jeep. Watch the video for recommendations and scenery. We did not get the most difficult portions of the trails on video. Let me tell you, there are some gnarly areas. I hope you love it as much as I do.
Thanks for one of the most informative videos on this wonderful place to date!
Tee hee hee... I got the first view/first like/first comment ;) Looks like y'all are having fun out there. Beautiful park
You did, you did, and you did! Thanks so much. We did have fun and I love that park!
Great video, and you give a lot of great information and recommendations. I was just there about a month before you on many of the same trails. Best advice I found before going was to bring two spare tires.
Thanks! I think the best plan is to be able to air the tires down so they don’t get punctured. It’s definitely one of my favorite trail tricks.
It seems like with sharp rocks, your tires would be more easily punctured if you aired down.
It is actually the opposite. The tire is able to flex around the rock rather than be punctured.
Two weeks we will be there.
Awesomeness
How tough is Fresno Canyon Road to Rincon 001 and 002? I've done Las Burras 001 which was about as gnarly as I want to be. Great video! Thanks.
There are a few big climbs and lots of small boulders and jagged rocks in the creek bed. It’s great fun, but pretty tough.
Great informative video. Question for you, how rough is the unmaintained road between Rancherias and Madrid Falls road? I’ll be traveling that route from Guale 2 to Chorro Vista. I’ve been to Guale 2 before. I’m in a JT with a 2” lift and 35’s. Any recommendations on recovery equipment? Thanks
There are a couple of hills that get a little gnarly, especially near Mexicano Campground. Madrid Falls Road itself isn’t too bad. Lots of sharp rocks though. Air down, slow down. You’ll be fine on 35’s. I carry some recovery straps, a tree protector, winch extension, soft/hard shackles, and an 11,000 lb rated hand winch along with the 9,500 lb winch. But I like to be prepared. Lol
Thanks a lot for your response . Can’t wait to get back over there.
Is the Hummer gone?
