Beginning March 1, new rules will take effect at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area designed to balance the need to better protect sensitive natural habitats atop the rock, including the vernal pools, and still allow visitors to continue to enjoy central Texas’ most popular destination with their pets.
Starting Tuesday, pets will only be allowed in specified camping areas, day-use areas and the Loop Trail. Pets will no longer be allowed to accompany hikers on the Summit Trail that ascends to the top of Enchanted Rock.
Most trails, including the Summit Trail, are closed 30 minutes after sunset, allowing park visitors to view the sunset and safely descend to the parking lot. The Loop Trail is the only trail open after sunset to gain access to the primitive camping areas.

Description
Climb the first two bolts of Texas Radio and instead of veering off to the right, follow the bolt line up and to the left to the top. Finish at the two anchors for Real Gravy. Here you can continue up to the top and walk off or use the rap rings. You can also move down and to the left to the anchors for Gravitron and rap here. Do not rap from Mexican Radio "anchors". You will not be able to pull rope through after rappelling! You can set up an anchor on these two bolts and TR Itty Bitty Black Streak, Amazing Gravy or Real Gravy. You can do a second pitch and can proceed up and to the right to two rap rings. There are no bolts between the end of the first pitch and these rap rings. Climbing for this second pitch is 5.7 but since there are no bolts, try to be careful!
