Big Bend National Park Dog Canyon Trail April 2017 Earth Day Special (1)
Big Bend National Park is one of our favorite places on earth. The weather was in the 70 s, and it was one of our best trips to the Big Bend National Park. The northernmost trails in Big Bend National Park lead to a pair of narrow ravines in the Santiago Mountains, the long, thin range that forms a natural boundary between the park and the adjacent Black Gap WMA. The limestone rocks in the canyon walls are faded greybrown in color, old, dusty and weathered in appearance, and distorted in alignment, with some strata in a fault zone upturned by 90. At the narrowest point the gorge is still 100 feet across, and in all places, the pebbly streambed is bordered by sandbanks and clumps of vegetation. Information Sorce:
