The first two to three miles of the hike up to the primitive camping area was fairly uneventful following a jeep trail all the way. There were some nice camping spots on the bluffs however and the rest of the hike was pretty rewarding. Jones Spring was nice and the old historical structure was interesting. The backside of the trail was by far the most enjoyable as you enter a patch of woodlands and then hike along the side of wolf mountain with some nice views. Overall I would say that it was an excellent hike that makes you work for its real beauty.
Wildflowers everywhere...

This was a nice, enjoyable hike through the hill country with beautiful wildflowers in bloom everywhere. Only saw one other person on the trail but due to the area this park is in it only gets a three for solitude.
Highly recommended for the more adventurous type.

The Comanche Bluff Trail was quite an experience. It seems that the trail has been flooded at one part, or perhaps this is where the trail ends because the trail brochure did say that it was not complete. Regardless this problem of course would not stop us. After a ways of beating through the brush and a little trailblazing we were able to find a road that would lead us to the Foxbottom Meadow, which was absolutely beautiful.
