NOVEMBER 30: LAST CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS ON THIS TRIP.
I realize it's still 5-weeks away, but there's a special use permit that everyone has to get for the Black Gap Wilderness Area.
We're wheeling/camping the first two nights (Jan 5-6) in Big Bend National Park, but the last night (Jan 7) will be spent in Black Gap WMA.
The permit is cheap ($13), but takes up to a month to process. Every individual is required to obtain a permit. That includes passengers. If you don't hear from me soon about details on the permit, please contact me. Thanks.

I'm interested
Funny I was already planning a trip to Big Bend this year from 3rd to the 11th with family so I'm sure they won't mind if I come hang out with you guys a couple of days. Please add me to the list as I'll be there!

I ordered my permit for the trip today. I did read on the site that if you print your reciept and carry it with you, it would work in place of the permit if you haven't recieved it in the mail before we go.
Last years trip was great! Matt knows the area well, and has done all the pre-planning hard work for us.

Can you pencil me in, it looks like I can get the required permit at any hunting lic vendor. If not then I'll get the Annual Hunting permit. It cost more, but will be worth it, so I can take my son hunting. Cheers

You should see mine now lol ... I didn't do the lift because it was just going to be too much money to step up to 37's, but I did add Rock Hard bumper with tire carrier and can carrier, bushwacker flat fenders, and the aev hood. Hopefully when I make it home next October I can install the rock lights and get a few other little things added to it all! Already planning for next years run to Big Bend!
