Then, continue westward on Texas M 170,, this river road follow the meandering Rio Grande and is among the most spectacular in the nation. We will be stopping at the many pull-outs to, revel in the view and check out the wayside exhibits.

The trail traverses desert scrub into moist riparian woodland. This oasis-like patch of green is a particularly good spot to bird-watch. The Cinco Tinajas Trail – (3/4 mile)near Sauceda is well marked; elevation change is only 200 feet and the vistas of the inner reaches of the park are breathtaking. Tinajas are naturally formed “bowls” that hold water when many other sources are dry. Continue on to the Fort Leaton State Historic Site. Ft Leaton is located four miles southeast of Presidio (Near Onjinaga) on the River Road to the Big Bend (FM 170E, Presidio, TX 79845).

It is a good 14-mile dirt road (slow down!), and the view of the exit from Santa Elena Canyon dominates the landscape. About halfway, Luna's Jacal is an interesting historical stop. As you approach the canyon overlook, the canyon looms more majestically at every turn. After taking hundreds of pictures at the overlook, you drive to the canyon trailhead and park. The trail to the Rio Grande and its exit from the canyon is short and easy, then ascends the cliffside to afford magnificent views of the canyon and the desert beyond. The trail then descends a relatively short distance into the canyon, until you can go no further. The views are awesome! (This is a must-do for those who are physically capable, and that is almost everyone.)After returning to the parking area, continue east to the Cottonwood Campground, a beautiful lunch stop under towering cottonwood trees. Usually, lots of birds, including the stunning vermilion flycatcher, accompany you!Once lunch is over, drive the short distance to Castolon, an old army post with a store and several old buildings to walk around and look at. Castolon Peak dominates the landscape to the north. (It is usually HOT by now--be prepared!)Continue north to the Tuff Canyon area, a really scenic and interesting volcanic area. Parking is very limited, but try to pull off the road and walk around a little bit. Continue on the Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive to the Mule Ears Overlook. The reason for the name will be evident! There is a pretty popular trail here, but time constraints will probably not allow us to do it. Back in the car, ascend to Sotol Vista. The sotol will not be blooming, but it is still a beautiful viewpoint.Continue northward to the Sam Nall Ranch. Begin at Mile 3, Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive.This is a short, easy walk (.05mi), mostly through the trees of the Nall homestead, and a historically significant part of the park. To the east, you can see "The Window," a V-shaped cut in the Chisos Mountains and one of the prominent landmarks in the park.Lower Burro Mesa Pour-off Trail- Begin at the end of Burro Mesa Spur Road off the Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive, this an easy 1mile round trip hike that leads through a gravel drainage, and ends in a narrow box canyon where water has carved a deep channel into Burro Mesa. The end of the trail is the base of a 100-foot pour-off. Usually dry, the smooth, polished pour-off attests to the power of water that floods this canyon during summer rains.Drive north to the junction and return to Terlingua for Happy Hour! This is an all-day drive.BIG BEND CENTRAL AREAMarch 29th (Monday)- (coming from the west side-Terlingua-busy day –Pack a Lunch) The majestic Chisos Mountains dominate the landscape of the center of the park. The junction is about 25-30 miles from the west entrance. 8:30am--Drive to into "The Basin" it is a beautiful, but slow, steep, and windy, 7 miles. The Basin is dominated by an imposing monolith called "Casa Grande." In the Basin are a Visitor's Center, a museum, a lodge, nice restaurant, and a store. It is probably about 10 degrees cooler than on the desert floor, but still hot most of the time.The main activity in The Basin is hiking. There is a short, easy trail to The Window Overlook, which provides great views. The most popular trails are the Window Trail and the Lost Mine Trail. Both of rated "moderately difficult," due to elevation change and length.HIKE #1-The Lost Mine Trail is Difficulty: Moderate; Distance: 4.8 miles round trip, it begins at mile 5.1 on the Basin Road and has limited parking It is mostly uphill to the summit, but then downhill all the way back. Quote from the park website: "This trail serves as an outstanding introduction the flora and fauna of the Chisos Mountains. With limited time, hike to marker 10 (about 1 mile), where a saddle offers stunning views of Casa Grande and Juniper Canyon. The remainder of the trail climbs steeply in and out of juniper, oak, and pine forest. The trail abruptly levels out at the ridge with superb views of Pine Canyon and the Sierra del Carmen in Mexico. A brochure is available at the trailhead."HIKE #2-The Window Trail is somewhat longer (5.6miles round trip, all downhill to the Window, then all uphill on the return. Quote from the park website: "This trail descends through Oak Creek Canyon to the Window pour-off which frames panoramic desert vistas. During wetter periods Oak Creek may be flowing, and must be crossed several times. Use caution on this trail: the top of the Window pour-off is slick rock with no railings, and the return hike is uphill."HIKE #3-Window View Trail-Difficulty: Easy; 0.3 mile round trip Begin at the Chisos Basin Trailhead. “This easy, paved wheelchair accessible trail circles a low hill with excellent views of the mountain peaks surrounding the Chisos Basin, and a view through the window. Benches along the trail offer a place to sit and enjoy a classic Big Bend sunset.”This trip into The Basin will be an all-day affair.BIG BEND EAST SIDE(March 30, 31, Apr 1, 2, (4 nights depart April 3rd)Rio Grande RV Village CGTuesday March 30th- Arrive Rio Grande Valley CG- (Relaxing day)Depart West side of Big Bend stop in route to east site to visit the Park Headquarters and gas up at Panther Junction if needed. --Distance to Rio Grande Village from Terlingua, 50.5mi-Time: 1hr 23mins--Arrive Rio Grande Valley CG--Nature walk--a short, relatively easy walk from the campground, over a boardwalk through a riparian area, then up a hill to a stunning view of the Rio Grande, Mexico, etc. About an hour, and well worth it.

This would be a morning activity to avoid the heat.10:30am--Border Crossing to Boquillas, Mexico for sightseeing and lunch. Touted as the safest border town in Mexico. The citizens run a ferry across the river ($5), then you walk 15 mins in sand or pay to ride a burro up to town. The main activities are doing some shopping, and having tacos and a cerveza at the cafe (don't drink the water!). Boquillas is a tiny, poor town, but this is a "must-do." Passports are required, the gate closes at 6pm. Tickets are available at the RGV store.Thursday April 1st- Depart RGV- (pack a lunch-busy day)Depart 8:30am-Chihuahuan Desert NatureTrail, - this is an easy 0.5 mile round trip walk that begins at Dugout Wells Oasis, 6 miles southeast of Panther JunctionA very knowledgeable ranger conducts this guided walk and talks about the plants and what the natives used them for.

Site Content
Additional Information
This is a long form text area designed for your content that you can fill up with as many words as your heart desires. You can write articles, long mission statements, company policies, executive profiles, company awards/distinctions, office locations, shareholder reports, whitepapers, media mentions and other pieces of content that don’t fit into a shorter, more succinct space.
Articles – Good topics for articles include anything related to your company – recent changes to operations, the latest company softball game – or the industry you’re in. General business trends (think national and even international) are great article fodder, too.
Mission statements – You can tell a lot about a company by its mission statement. Don’t have one? Now might be a good time to create one and post it here. A good mission statement tells you what drives a company to do what it does.
Company policies – Are there company policies that are particularly important to your business? Perhaps your unlimited paternity/maternity leave policy has endeared you to employees across the company. This is a good place to talk about that.
Executive profiles – A company is only as strong as its executive leadership. This is a good place to show off who’s occupying the corner offices. Write a nice bio about each executive that includes what they do, how long they’ve been at it, and what got them to where they are.
