Palo Dura Canyon State Park – TX – 2

Location & Map

  • July – 2021
  • Weather – Hot and flash-flood rains!

Facilities

  • Notes:
  • Hot! And no shade…
    • Our trip was cut short because of torrential rains and a campground power outage following a lightning storm… 2.5 inches of rain had mud across the roads and navigation was challenging.
  • The pads are fairly level and easy access for back-in and drive-thru sites.
  • We had expected a longer stay, however with the power out due to a blown transformer we opted not to stay.

What we liked / disliked

  • Notes
    • During the overnight storm we realized that there was no way for park staff to communicate with campers at the base of the park and to communicate road conditions, etc. We actually wondered if we were safe?
    • No cellphone or amateur radio service
