Does anyone know the status of this trail? I found a map of a Lake Conroe Loop hike in the files, but no mention of it on any of the other maps. I am talking...
There used to be several "outlaw" ATV trails in that area after it was logged about 10 or 15 years ago. Almost all of those trails are now overgrown. We still...
Yes, you may want to rethink about camping on that loop. After the recent rains, Little Lake Creek was flooding so bad it flooded streets in Montgomery...
It was a beautiful day Saturday on the North Wilderness Loop with Carolina Jasmine in full bloom. Red buds can't be far behind and then dogwood!! The Lone Star...
Hi I'm new here, but I have a question. I'm training for a hilly trail run next summer and was wondering which section of the LST you consider to be the...
IMHO Probably the Huntsville section especially into and out of the Elkins Lake spillway. But you'll get the guard dogs a barking here (residential area). If...
I vote for the 4-Notch Loop as the most challenging. Some elevation but mostly lots of ups and downs crossing creeks and drainages. Trail Head # 8 FOUR NOTCH:...

I have confirmed with the Forest Service that you can park in the LSHT parking lot for free for DAYHIKING. I don't know what the official policy is for leaving...
Howdy - I hiked from TH #14 almost to Tarkington bayou on 2/17. It rained all day and that section of the trail had received at least 5 inches of rain over...
Mariella, That last 10 miles is the wettest 10 mile section of the entire LSHT. Even though it has not rained for 2 weeks, you will have puddles on the trail...
I am planning a youth group trip (Camp Fire) to the western end of the LSHT & connecting loops for the end of this month. We normally do a service project at...

Mina, The Sand Branch Primitive campsite is small and is scheduled to have some improvement work done on it in June. You may want to consider camping at the...
Allen, I think you are right, the Sand Branch campsite isn't very big; I was thinking of it because it is designated and because it has a fire ring, and when...
Thank you both for the information. I'll give both sections a try over the next few weeks. By the way, I have run on the new wide "roads" that they just made...
