Hey, I've looked at Merus but their prices seem a little steep to me. Also, I'm just down the road in Midlothian!

Went in the beginning of Nov, a group of us camped out in boots off campsite. it was awesome and beautiful. Well marked trails and some good challenging terrain for all skill levels. I didn’t think it was too expensive. But there was 4 of us and we split the campsite. Last year I moved back to OK from CO and this was the first place I really found that was comparable to wheeling in CO… minus paying of course, Just my 2 cents here’s a few pics too. We had my stock JLUR on 35s, 2 JKs one pretty built out and our buddy in his stock TRD pro, all different skill levels. Everyone found their limits at some point at Merus both vehicles and drivers!

Thanks for the info. I am already going to be in Amarillo so want to check it out while I am there. Also want to plan a trip to camp there if the wheeling is good, probably in the spring before the summer temps hit.

$68 for a day pass/guided run is a little steep but that is for the Jeep and everyone it. Other places charge for the Jeep/driver and then extra for passengers so it doesn't end up being that much more

I guess when looking at the pricing the last time it looked like you had to get a year pass for $800.
If it's $68 for the day plus a guide that isn't bad.
For their 2day/1 night It's still confusing. Is it $87 each day per vehicle or $87 for both days and the campsite per vehicle? It looks like a really neat park but it's just outside the range I'd want to try to do a there and back in one day.

No way I would do out and back in a day. I will be staying with my son this trip but do want to go back and camp. It looks like the $87 is for trail access and camping combined. It is a group package (3 vehicles) but not sure if it is $87 a vehicle or that is the group price for all 3. I will ask them, if that is the group price that is pretty cheap.

lol I just sent an email asking. I did see somewhere on the website that the price is per vehicle and poking around on their calendar it looks like you can only select one day. So I think the price is per vehicle for both days but will let you know what they reply with. That is still a pretty reasonable price. @Jabarsetti do you recall what you had to pay?

To Merus:

Hello,​

I was looking over your website trying to understand the pricing...​

If I was interested in booking the 2 day / 1 night package and picked January 14th for $87... does that cover my being there the 14th AND the 15th AND the campsite?​

Thanks for the clarification and looking forwards to you getting some cabins onsite! : )​

Reply:

Those are our group pricing so you would need 3 rigs to qualify for the group rate. And all passes and fee are included for the duration of the package.​

​

For solo rigs:​

$17/night/campsite​

$12/passenger/day​

$35/per rig/day (includes driver)​

​

We are working on a new website to clear things up a bit in the future. And, we also are looking forward to our cabins.​

So not bad at all!
