Remembering Having Fun Getting Lost & Snake Scared At The Breaks @ Bar H Mountain Bike Ranch

It was only after looking at multiple photos today in the Microsoft OneDrive Memories of this Day that I figured out where it was I was mountain biking on my now long gone Schwinn Moab mountain bike.

The Breaks @ Bar H Mountain Bike Ranch.

North of St. Jo, Texas, near the Red River and the border with Oklahoma.

It was when I saw the trail signs in some of the photos that I remembered where those trails were located.

Hole in the Tree, Holler, Rustler's Loop & Copperhead, among many more.

I recollect these mountain bike trails as being fun, difficult at times, and a bit scary at times.

That and I got lost more than once.

One of the photos was of a small pond in which dozens of snakes slithered. I assumed water moccasins.

The photo did not manage to show the snakes.


These photos were all taken with my now long-gone antique Casio digital camera with its unique, at the time, feature, where you could reverse the lens and take what is now known as a selfie.

I was living in the DFW zone when I drove all the way north to The Breaks @ Bar H Mountain Ranch a couple times. I am currently living much closer.

Til today it had not crossed my mind to return to this location, even if it is closer...
