On next live xTx Zoom call update Charlie, Melissa, xTx advisors and expert volunteers will be sharing why it became clear the xTx needs to be created to a “Horse Healthy” standard to make the trail safe and friendly for all trail travelers.

Charlie’s learning that leading with horses is opening far more doors with landowners than he thought!

Everyone’s welcome! Make sure to register below.

We’re asking seasoned, expert equestrians with skills and knowledge of horse needs on the trail to help us craft recommendations for a “xTx Horse Healthy” designation for communities and towns along the cross Texas trail.

If you have a deep understanding of the logistics to make sure horses are safe, and comfortable on long distance trails we’d love to you join us to weight in.

Charlie’s looking for 2 - 4 people to join him on a day hike of Santa Elena Canyon accompanied by one of our photographer/videographers and another journalist.

• This is a 4-mile total trip, however, you need to be hardy and comfortable in the heat and hiking, wading, and possibly swimming through water and mud.

• You need to be available and willing to be interviewed by Charlie in advance to confirm your skill level.

• You need to be completely ready to go right on time on Sunday. This is a quick trip. It will likely be done before 4 pm.

• You need to have your own reliable transportation to/from the trailhead.

• You need to be willing to sign our regular waiver.

• You need to be comfortable being photographed, videotaped, and even interviewed for our website and possible news stories.

Thursday, April 10th from 6 - 7 pm Central Time

Join us for the next xTexas Online Happy Hour! Charlie will tell us all about the adventures he, Pam LeBlanc and Nick Taylor had in their recent hike of Santa Elena Canyon in Big Bend State Park.

Charlie wants this Santa Elena Canyon route to be an alternative possibility for xTexas Trail hikers because of the water sources, and of course, the incredible beauty.

The event is free but you need to register. Bring along your favorite brew or sweet tea and join us for a fun conversation with plenty of time to have your questions answered.

This event is free, but please RSVP so we can know how many to expect!
