PRESENTATION OUTLINE
So before you say no...
We put a lot of thought into this, so please stick with us till the very end of the presentation.
OPERATION: ROAD TIP SUMMER 2016
Caprock Canyon State Park
Quitaque, Texas
Details
(Because they're important)
We've worked this out to be a five day trip; leave Thursday morning, come back Monday.
Now let's see a map...
The days between will be spent hiking and exploring the many rugged trails of the park.
ABOUT THE PARK
- It is home to Texas's Official Bison Herd
- It boasts around 90 miles of trails in the park and on surrounding trailways (hiking, biking, horseback riding)
- Not only is there fishing on Lake Theo, which sits near the park's southern border, but several creeks and rivers run across the park and hug many of the trails (more fishing opportunities)
We've known each other since third grade.
By the time of the trip, I'll be 17 and she will be 18.
Both of us will have our driver's licenses.
We'll both be going into our senior year.
SO WHEN IS THIS MYTHICAL TRIP GONNA TAKE PLACE?
We've planned for the trip to be Thursday, June 2- Monday, June 6.
If there's anything that comes up, we have several other dates throughout the summer break that we can fit just as well- the main goal is just for it to be a Thursday-Monday trip.
NOW DOWN TO THE NITTY GRITTY: HOW MUCH IS THIS TRIP GONNA COST?
AND NOW FOR A BREAKDOWN OF THE BUDGET
Let's start with gas...
This trip is gonna be about 540 miles roundtrip.
Abi's car (2011 Cruze) gets anywhere from 28-36 mpg, and has a fourteen gallon tank which can typically be filled for $25.
Two gallons of gas will get us there and back, but in case of emergency so we have extra money to fall back on we quadrupled this making $100 for gas.
