January Hike at Inks Lake

We took advantage of MLK holiday and went to Inks Lake to enjoy the beautiful weather. We hiked the Pecan Flats Trail, which was a first for us. It was 3.5 miles of rugged Central Texas terrain. We concluded with lunch at a campsite by the lake.

Starting out on the Pecan Flats Trail.

Rugged hill country terrain.

The highest point in the park was on this trail. I think the elevation was 1,000 ft.

Dale's photographic skills.

Though it was chilly when we started it didn't take long to shed most of our layers.

We enjoyed our lunch at a campsite by the lake.

There were turtles, ducks, egrets, squirrels, all kinds of wildlife near our lunch site.

A huge oak in one of the campsites. This would be a great campsite to stay in.
