What Is the Pineywoods Possum Walk?

Lace up your hiking boots and embark on a scavenger hunt through some of East Texas’ most scenic spots. We’ve hidden possums—each with a unique QR code—along trails in Cassels-Boykin Park and the Angelina National Forest, including Boykin Springs Recreation Area, Old Aldridge Sawmill Trail, and Bouton Lake Recreation Area. Find a possum, scan the code, and register for a chance to win a prize package filled with local treasures and outdoor gear!

New Possums Weekly: Each week, we’ll place fresh possums on a designated trail and announce the location here on our website. Check back often to plan your next hike!

Prize Drawing: Every possum you register enters you into our grand prize drawing, awarded on July 1, 2025.
