    ENCHANTED ROCK STATE PARK

    We are planning a trip on the forth of July weekend to Enchanted rock to do some camping. I've been there but it's been over 15 years since I last went. Has anyone gone here and had any problems with drinking a few adult drinks. I know what the rules say. I've also read up on the state law of public display. I was thinking If doing so I would be wise to just have a handy red solo cup and remain low key during this trip.

    How about just obeying the law? This is what gets me tee off. You have not done it yet, but the ones on here that pick and choose what laws they follow.

    IIRC, the law says no "public" consumption, and I believe "public" is defined as visible. If it isn't visible, I don't think they have a problem with it.
    But, of course, not visible means no visible trash and no visible behavior.
    I don't think you will have a problem with that last one, but many people seem to forget the trash part.
    I had a neighbor at Inks Lake (same rules) got in trouble because of that.

    Of course I pick and choose the laws I follow.
    With 80,000+ pages of incomprehensible laws, I expect that no matter what I do, I will be breaking some of them.
    I don't mind being called far right.
    I have been right so far.

    Of course just2cents just blindly follows all laws.

    I bet you obey every law on the books, even those you don't know.

    You've got to have bottles, cans, etc out of view or they'll harass you. Especially on a busy weekend. But if you put your beverages in glasses, containers etc you should be ok. I had a ranger harass me at South Llano state park recently. We were quiet and clean but he "knew" what was in the red solo cups. So the next time I went, we used metal camping cups and reusable water bottles.
