Texas GeoCampers @ Inks Lake State Park

​We are a group of geocachers who hold monthly events touring the great State Parks of Texas!  Our group will camp in a different Texas State Park every month.  For this event, we will be camping in the electric campsite area of Inks Lake State Park, and we have reserved sites for the weekend. Depending on the month there will be activities and ranger-led events, allowing us to experience all that Texas has to offer!  This GeoCampers event is planned for the weekend of September 21st, however some camping geocachers will begin arriving on the 20th to take full advantage of the weekend's camping and caching opportunities! You don't have to camp to attend, but camping is highly encouraged!
