Grandeur

Day 8: Friday, November 30
Big Bend National Park
Glorious hikes--up a mountain and along the Rio Grande into a slot canyon with sides towering 1500 feet above us. Winding drives with inspiring--often surprising--vistas around just about every hairpin curve. 

Words are too small--here is our day in pictures.


The next three pictures are of the Rio Grande--with Mexico on the left shore and the United States on the right.  There are many spots where it is shallow enough to wade across without getting your knees wet.









Sunset through "The Window" at Chisos Basin.  It would be more dramatic with some clouds, but we aren't complaining.
