Campsite: Poage Lake Primitive Campsite
Absolutely beautiful little alpine lake near Southfork. The drive can be a bit on the bumpy side, so keep your speed under control. The lake has a good population of trout that were eagerly feeding on the night’s hatch and took a few dry fly patterns for us. I was wishing I had brought my float tube, as wading is tough and the trees tight on the lower end of the lake (I left a few flies in the high branches, ahem!).
Campsite: Lost Maples State Natural Area
I hiked Lost Maples for the first time back in the spring and put it on my must-do list for the fall, hoping to experience the legendary colors of the foliage. Despite the severe drought dampening the colors a bit, my hike in mid-November did not disappoint. This is a beautiful park any time of year, and the colors just amplify that. Trails are well-maintained and marked, although a few have fairly significantly steep grades and loose, rocky footing, so be prepared and allow plenty of time. The park offers tent and rv camping in the main areas near the entrance and several great primitive areas accessible only on foot. Plan ahead if you wish to see the fall colors. Reservations can be made a month in advance, and you won’t get in without a reservation most days October through November.
