Camp Livingston trail map

[highpocket74]

Map includes my revisions to show bridge locations, bridge widths, and the by-pass for 2 bridges that is not along side or as obvious. Those 2 by-passes are off the beaten path, not easily seen.

How does it compare to Sandstone? We’re thinking about checking it out when it reopens.

 

[highpocket74]

It’s rougher with a LOT of tight turns. But it’s still better than Claiborne. Lot more roots than sandstone but not as bad as Claiborne. Not as fast as sandstone either. Usually not much traffic there either unless other trails are closed. We went early in early May when it was the only trail open and there was quite a crowd of campers. I like it ok. My wife does not like all the right turns. Easy to get lost at that circle area on map near north trail head too.

@highpocket74 Do you have any idea when they might reopen the Kisatchie trails? They've been closed for quite a while now. I'm guessing due to downed trees from the storms? Sucks because there is nowhere else to ride that isn't just mud and the weather has been perfect.

 

[highpocket74]

We'll have to go out of state or private parks. Sabine is open.
Kistachie will probably be closed for a few years at the rate they work!

Sabine has some fun trails, it's not all mud. We like the west side of property for fast sandy trails. Where there is mud you can almost always go around it. The Sabine River is low right now too so the sandbar will be HUGE!

Sabine is 3000 acres I believe. Entertaining for a day or two. Big hills too!

I'll have to check it out. Looks like it's a little over 4 hours from me.

Sabine offers camping spots and cabins if you want to spend a night. You have to call on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, they are closed during the week.

 

[highpocket74]

Forgot to mention the camping. If you RV or tent camp they have plenty of space available. Shower house on site too. Small store. It's a decent setup for the weekend.

Google earth pin attached

 

[highpocket74]

A few GPS tracks from different trips attached. "Official" map attached also but it's not very complete or helpful. There are only a couple signs along trails that show how to get back to camp so use your phone to find your way around. There are trails that take off all over the place so it's easy to get lost momentarily.

I've got a map I was making from these gps tracks and the google earth image but it's unfinished on my ipad. I can upload it as is for anyone that might want to print and use.

If you've got tracks I'd love to get them so I can throw them on my tablet.

 

[highpocket74]

I have them on my gps at home. I'll see if i can retrieve them to share.

 

[highpocket74]

See if this will work for you, Adam.

See if this will work for you, Adam.

Thanks, I downloaded to tablet but haven't had a chance to play with it yet.

We spent the day at Sabine, a little dusty in some areas but we had a great day. I only needed the winch once, that river bed is deceiving!
