I live on Lake Tawakoni, in 2007 it dropped 14' and figured it might take several years to fill up, that July a freak front blew in from the gulf, and dropped 22" in three days, and the lake went from 14' low to 2' over the retaining walls.Originally Posted by Deedeelin1
This year it dropped about as much, but since the snow, ice and rain and fog, its dramatically up several feet and rising. I'm excited that my boat may get launched this year.
It still might be dusty as the sun and thousands of wheels dry out the main roads, but I don't think that going to be the issue on the trails this year. With all the water that will be dripping off, I'm betting the trails are going to be tore up stuff!
Noel, where you camping?
After many years of adventure living, while in the employ of the U.S. Army, and accustomed to all the hardships of living off the land, turning over logs to harvest grubs, skinning snakes, and boiling scorpions, all while keeping the rain off with a canopy fashioned from pine needles, a tarp or a poncho, for this trip I have opted for the Holiday Inn Express just down the road. Breakfast served at 630am, manager's reception at 530pm.
I like that idea!!!
Last year I camped in our argo trailer,and ate "road kill possum" it was rough even from a "roughing it" point of view......Ok ,we didnt eat possum,but I did see one,and it was an option.
Hey every one. I expect to arrive the on Thursday, the morning of the 26th of May. I am looking forward to seeing LocoLouie, Noel Woods, Tim and Mike from Adair Argo, Foxvalley, Brandon Price, Robert and His wife and anyone else who makes the trip. I should be a great time and I am looking forward to seeing everyone.
I plan on camping, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Sounds good Dan
Not sure yet when Tim, Mike and I are leaving, or when we get down there,but when I find out, I'll let you know.
Sounds like they are getting lots of rain,more rain, more fun.
It looks like the park and surrounding areas got between 3-4 inches of rain, on top of what was already a damp situation. The swamps are reported to be full and water is flowing heavily into the area. Areas that were dry when I was there a few days back are now underwater.
Friends I have in several 4 wheeler clubs have told me that their clubs are concerned that conditions may be too wet for their vehicles. It should be perfect conditions for AATVs.
To wet for the quads !!?? To much snow for the quads? To deep swamp for the quads??
And they call those things"atvs" (ALL terrain vehicles!!!???? BAAAAAAAAAA!!!!)
They should change the name to:
STVs, Some terrain vehicles
Or : FWVs, Fair weather vehicles
Or : HGVs, High ground vehicles
Need I keep going?? LOL. Wake up quad owners.
Mud Creek and River Run ATV parks are reporting creeks and rivers flooding area, but Mud Creek says suppose to be back with in its banks by the this weekend. We still have more rain coming! Needless to say, the holes and low ares will suerly be filled to the top. Roads running around the place will be tore up with a day or two limiting folks travel. Might be a whole lot of ATVs (HGVs) sitting around the camp fire. Might want to throw in a trolling motor for this one boys!
I found this on the 2015 Highlifter Mud Nationals site under vendors:
front vendor Area
Arctic Cat - Off-road ATVs, UTVs and more
Argo Adventure - Argo OEM
Brinson Powersports - Can-Am, Polaris, Sea Doo, Kawasaki dealer
Broadway Powersports - ATV/UTVs
Kymco - On-road scooters and motorcycles, off-road ATVs and UTVs
Performance Powersports - Dealer
It looks like Argo has some representation at the dealer level! Can't wait to stop by and say hello.
