Big Bend National Park, March 10, 2021
To me the highlight of our drive west was our day in Big Bend National Park in Texas and Mexico from Alpine, Texas. We started out in the Chihauhuan Desert for the Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive to the Canon de Santa Elena with it's famous hike and scenery. We followed the Rio Grande east for a while photographing and touring the Chisos Mountains. We took a long offroad drive in our Subaru Outback to do the strenuous hike/climb to Balanced Rock in the Grapevine Hills. We took a different exit toward Marathon for the different scenery. A wonderful memorable day!!! The phone app Just Ahead really made this a much more enjoyable experience!!! /hugh
