Dave also checked out the trail entrance at the far end of the park and he thought it would be OK for him to do, even with his slightly gimpy leg. The ranger who checked us in the first day said it’s only a mile long and the trail goes all along the top. The second day we were here we decided to do the “easy” hike up to the top of the canyon. Yes he can actually do that with his leg.it’s coming along amazingly well. Mornings were cooler (slightly) so I ran the first morning and Dave biked. There’s spots all over the grounds indicating that you can do that but we didn’t see anyone going over any of the walls. If we were into rappelling, this would be a great place to do that. Dave and I have been hosing each other off with the water at the campsite, gets us cooled off thru the day anyways. Crazy! Lucky we have an outdoor tap and hose on the trailer that’s come in very handy this stay. So I went and checked out the older facilities in the other campground areas and they had free showers, although not the nicest. Oh ya, the book we have says this park has a pool, it does but they charge you $4/adult per day if you want to use it!! I can see that for the day users but for the overnight campers, what a rip off! And the showers in the newer facility, they make you pay for them too.50 cents for 3 minutes, again, what a rip off. Thought it would be really hot but there’s been a decent breeze most of the time.thank god because by noon, it’s one stinking hot breeze and there’s no where to swim! Neat spot, we literally camped in the canyon, right up against red rock walls. Near, Hinton Oklahoma.a small canyon in the middle of miles of very flat landĭid another 6+ hour drive to make up time and ended up at Red Rock Canyon State Park in Oklahoma.
