Nice high desert day hike or horseback ride on an old ore road.
Nice high desert day hike or horseback ride on an old ore road.
Steady gain with fine views of dark canyons and the Chisos, nearly all of BBNP and Mexico. Lovely birding basin 3/4 to summit .Antennas on summit. No water, scant shade. This is a much better approach than the southern route from BBNP which intersects at the basin. Great hike for first day acclimation and reconnoitering the park.
Trail head is 20 miles off route 118 on Terlingua Ranch roads. For permit (fee), call Terlingua Ranch 432-371-3146.
