While most visitors are attracted to Chisos Basin and the mountains, I found the river and desert equally attractive.

Welcome to the real Texas!! Enjoy!
I just drove all day through a snow storm. Is that what you call “the real Texas?” Any way, in the Hill Country near Austin right now.
Great pictures Ron. I especially like the sunrise one.
Thank you. it is easy in a beautiful place.
Impressive, romantic scenery. How do you visit the river in the canyon? Were you in a boat, or using a long distance shot from a trail?
Nature (PBS) is showing a program on Big Bend this week.
I think there is a little town near the park where they rent you the kayak and also transport you to the start and pick you up at the end. Otherwise, you need 2 vehicles. It is possible to hike to the point where this picture was taken, but not farther.
