T hen the next day back above land in Texas for towering boulders and vast river carved mountain crevasses of Big Bend National Park. It is a driving loop to enter and exit the park with little roads that you can take to end destinations. The day before they had some heavy rains and much of the road was flooded and covered with mud, I only had to cross dry mud and no roads were closed. As you travel the loop of the main part of the park it is easy to put in 100 miles and see a variety from jagged rocks to canyons, hill like mountains and more...and not to be missed were the four tarantulas that crossed the roads as I rode through!
