Lone Star Hiking Trail: Trailhead 3 to Trailhead 6

We hiked a portion of the Lone Star Hiking Trail. Started at trailhead 3, and hiked up to trailhead 6, about 7 or 8 miles, 9 according to Strava. We hammock camped by Lake Conroe, which is about 3/4 of a mile from trailhead 6. About 1/3 into the hike, we walked into a controlled burn, that is the scorched portion of the trail that you see. There were no warnings at the trailhead, so we were unaware. I should have done more research.
I plan on thru hiking the Lone Start Trail, which is about 96 miles, so if you have any tips of advices about the LSHT, drop a comment or just say it’s flat with too many snakes during the day and howling coyotes at night :)

    Hahaha! hello! Yes, don’t drink any of the water on this trail, lol! But, this trail is hella easy, flat, well marked/maintained. I’m sure its a slush right now, though, with all of this rain. You will be fine. I just watched your adventure on Moses Lake and you are crazy, and will definitely do just fine if you came out of that death trap. I’ve never kayaked there, and won’t be after watching that, lol.

    @@TheFishAndTrips Hahha! Yes, love hammock camping! This spot is pretty popular. I recommend going on a weekday. From the Trailhead 6 parking lot, take the trail towards the lake, it’s like 0.75miles. It’s short hike from the parking lot. When you get to the lake, it’s on the righ side. Easy to find. it’s a big ass, nice spot.

    FYI, that side of the area is big enough to hold more than a couple of campers, as long as everyone is courteous and respectful. So, don’t be deterred if other people are there already. Just camp far away enough, if they care, lol. It’s a great hammock camping area.

    @@janis.gabriel well, my goal is to get away from people in order to shoot a solo video, so I may have to venture off the trail into the woods. 🤔 "Things black people never say for $500, Alex".
