OverlandXJ · 04-28-2009, 04:26 PM

Used to spend summers in Corpus Christi with family.

Brownsville Zoo was one of the best back in the day, might want to look into that.

You could take a ride North to Corpus and drive/camp on the beach at Padre Island.

fixitman · 04-28-2009, 05:58 PM

thats how u spell it... ok lol, ove that town its beautiful

whowey · 04-28-2009, 07:16 PM

BlueXJ is pretty close to that area....

He should have some better info on the area. But when I was there for work, I didnt see much of anywhere to do any wheeling...

The Confederate Air Force used to have a place in Harligen... Only flying B-29 in the world. and a TON of other cool WWII airplanes

fixitman · 04-28-2009, 08:50 PM

ive been to all those places haha, i love the brownville zoo its awesome, and yea i spent last spring break on south padre island in the ramada on the south facing side, it was the most fun ive ever had haha!i cant wait to go for the summer this time i think ill be driving the jeep down even tho plane tickets r cheaper than gas i cant be down there for a month without my jeep

fixitman · 04-28-2009, 08:53 PM

and the harlingen base is really cool i love it, actually after school, (one more year) i might go down and live with my grandparents in brownsville and join the border patrol for a maybe a year or two just for the experience and to have a reason to stay in the beautiful weather for a while lol

BlueXJ · 06-15-2009, 09:50 PM

The only places to wheel here is Whalen on down south almost to Mex and it is just some mud. Mostly folks here just run all the back roads and trails that run through the brush country. Most land is private so you need to know someone to get on much of it and I don't know anyone. So I just run the backroads and thats about it for this area.
Many folksd go run on the beach but I avoid saltwater like the plague.

XJbazan · 12-12-2009, 03:32 PM

im new here but i live in the south texas area i havent been there but i know der is las milpas in south san juan it just a mud pit but some of my buddies told me it pretty good wheelin der.

FLETCH · 12-13-2009, 07:38 PM

I live in Corpus Christi and I'm always at the beach.

superj · 02-05-2010, 09:27 PM

/\ hey man, you work on base?

offroadman83 · 03-10-2010, 09:25 PM

Highway 48 in Brownsville has some okay wheelin too----------

Here is a picture from there

wkwally · 03-10-2010, 11:17 PM

I am here in brownsville. I wheel mostly back behind Boca Chica Beach and sometimes on 48. did go the dunes once on SPI when I did not want to pay the entry fee to get on the beach.
By the way anyone who want the FYI there is a shop on Boca Chica across the airport that is real reasonable.
