Default Headed to Lk Travis Aug 4th-7th!!!

Wondering if anyone else will be there? We live on Lewisville but are heading down there with a group of 30 ppl. I head Travis is low but if you use common sense, you will be fine.

I think the lake is at about 640 today. When it gets below 63? Mansfield is out of the water and I think it may be the deepest ramp although I'm not positive. Check with LCRA or maybe one of the guys that live out there will chime in. Your right about being careful--you also might bring a couple of extr props---just in case. Also check on the new rules concerning Devil's Cove--the restrictions are pretty tight and the enforcement is pretty active.
Have fun-be safe

Thats Volente, nice spot....
Driftwood TX is pretty far from lake,
I guess your resort uses the same name.

We launched our cruiser 3 years ago at VIP when the lake was like 645, that looks close to your resport. What resport did you book?
