The National and State Park are only miles apart but still so much to see.
This is inside Big Bend National ParkSeveral trails to old ranches. This one was my favorite. It was so secluded ( people reported they did suffer from isolation ). a spring kept the trees ( fig and pecan) alive. Not funny Gregg! Positioned me right between the “ Mules Ears” Mountains. You must walk across the Rio Grande to get to the Santa Elena Canyon trial and up an embankment. I’m not gonna lie, I had to have help. Yep you have to go 👆to the top and then around a small pathway. Growing on the side of the mountain. Sometimes I wish I could read his mind. Not for anyone with the fear of heights. A young man on his way down said” I was enthralled with the calm provided by the King” Finally something named Sue ( besides a boy named Sue) Oh we are not finished yet?Desert and left over flash flood mud.
