I want to do the full Kiamichi Trail in January. I'm planning on January 1st thru 4th (maybe thru the 5th). Aaron and I did he eastern portion last year. That turned out to be a logging trip with all the downed trees. I still had fun. I'm bringing a chain saw this trip. I want to start off in Clayton and drive the entire trail.
This trip is a go.
Tentative plan:
Leaving Houston Thur Jan 1st at 9am. Pickup up Aaron in Lindale and traveling to Clayton Lake SP. Hit the Kiamichi Trail the morning of Fri Jan 2nd and drive to the Kiamichi Fire Tower. We can camp at the tower or drive along Little Mountain Rd (4675) to Billy Creek Campground. If we camp at Billy Creek Fri night, we can drive back up Little Mountain Rd on Sat to get some more offroad driving in and then continue eastward along the K Trail. Time defendant we can then drive out to Beaver's Bend SP and camp Sat night. This will give us an hour headstart on the drive home Sunday morning. If we lack time, we can find a spot to camp in the Ouachita NF.
Plan is to eat community meals for dinners and breakfasts. Lunch can be individual as we're be eating lunch on the road or on the trail.
Thurs Dinner: Lyndall- white bean and chicken chili and cornbread.
Fri breakfast: Kendal - breakfast tacos
Fri dinner: David- chicken and wild rice
Sat breakfast: Lyndall - sausage frittata
Sat dinner: James - ???
Sun breakfast: Aaron - sauage ball things
Ive got plenty of firewood for the group and will be brining an ezup in the event it rains.
A beer exchange is proposed, so bring your favorite beers. I'm bringing cans, as they crush easier.
