Just hearing the name of the location, I wouldn't have thought to go there, either; breaking a quiet curfew would be apropos for the area I was -mistakenly-thinking of....http://www.fwtx.com/articles/highway-hell Whenever I hear the name "Jacksboro", I naturally think about the "Highway to Hell' or "Thunder Road" strip of Hwy 199, where it was dangerous during the 40's thru at least the early 60's. My Dad liked to gamble (I have forsworn that, after many set-backs), and at least once, ended up there. I remember, because my Mom took me with her, to pick him up there, after he lost his car playing high stakes poker. He switched to football and basketball after that. Mom never let him off the hook for that, either. When I was growing up, during the 60's and 70's, some of the wilder guys would hang in that area, but I was not going to, ever. I've driven thru many times, and it seems to have tamed quite a bit, but that's a far piece from the Hidden Lake park (about 55-60 miles north), and light years in behavior, I'm sure.
