Big Bend National Park

One of the largest but least visted US National Parks, Big Bend National Park is situated at a remote southwest corner of the state of Texas, bordering with Mexico along the Rio Grande. Occupying an area of 810,000 acres, the park contains three different ecological systems: the Chihuahuan desert, the Chisos mountain, and the Rio Grande river.

These pictures were taken during a 4-day camping trip in March, 2010.
