Well written. Learning as we go! Thank you.

agree

Nice! Let me know what the conditions are like

Thanks!

I didn't see any smoke when I was out there

The first time I used my passport was here

Welcome!

Glad you enjoyed it!

That makes sense to me. You changed my perspective on how they see things.

A fun one to work through

A fun drive worth taking

Noted! I know there are points I would have liked to get out to. Any suggestions or paddle around the entire island?

Hell yeah I saw you were up there and the area is incredibly beautiful. A must stop for anyone that's around that area

Awesome! The beginning and planning of a trip is exciting because everything seems possible. In regards to figuring out where to go it all depends on what you like. A great place to start would be the national park website or visitor center. They can offer things to do which may be appealing to you and within your capabilities without putting you at risk. For me I was mostly hiking anywhere I went so I used online blogs and apps such as all trails to find my trails. The hikes I like are challenging and have great views in the area (longer distance and more elevation gain). The more difficult anything the less people you will come across but not always. In the case of Big Bend I knew there were Hot Springs worth trying to find, Emory Peak being the highest point, canyons along the Rio Grande worth exploring, and the port of entry into Boquillas Mexico as seen here. It helps to start with activities you are most interested in then prioritize them with the time you have in the area. I would also note campgrounds and places to stay for cheap (or in my case free) are limited so plan campgrounds/ such ahead of time. Enjoy your trip! If you have other questions I'm can share tips and thoughts from my experience. I really just looked for places and things I thought were cool and wanted to try. Hope this helps

@@bryantsinka It really helps, thank you very much!

Nice! You will have a great time. The only gas station is down in the valley at cost. Food and water is really all you need. I stayed at Mahogany Flats because it is free campingpemding if roads are open. I think there are more free campsites available but you might have to check me on that. I didn't spend any time down in the valley exploring so please share your experience if you do any hiking. You should have a great time, thanks!

Thank you for the tips!!! I was concerned about the gas part and thought about bringing a gas can.​

@@Laud_Visuals Definitely a good place to consider the gas can haha. Glad you enjoyed yourself

Hope it helps

@@bryantsinka yes. It showed me right where the front passenger seat bolts were under those covers. Awesome. Mine is a 2002 crv and was close to what you have

Truth

Thanks!

I've been curious how a more up to date version would look myself

I'm glad you found it useful. This was Nov 30th

Will buy a pole so next time I go anywhere I'm ready! Thanks for the insight

If anyone is in the area it is worth a visit!

@@bryantsinkaes que depende de tus gustos pero acabamos de estar ahí este mes y nos encanto, comimos y tomamos cerveza 🍺 y la gente te recibe bien, solo que nos hubiera gustado quedarnos ahí a dormir, la próxima vez lo haremos.

The people are wonderful. I think it is worth it for the whole experience like you mentioned

Beautiful area and thank you! Are there any spots here I missed you would also recommend?

Blast from the past

It is tough and rewarding

The chickens are my favorite

I enjoy winter activities 😀

I always find the going down harder because foot placement. The actual hike has good support for hand placement

Agree. I know I want to go back and kayak the Rio Grande. If you have other suggestions please share

@@bryantsinka Closed Canyon and the Hoodoos Big Bend Ranch State Park.

Thank you will remember that when I find my way back down there

@@bryantsinka for sure

Its never ending with the hikes 🙂

Awesome!!

Appreciate the correction

Nice! We heard about Basswood falls but with weather and timing weren't able to make it up there

I think the trick is to go hard and far the first two days to get in the area. Was there a campsite on new York island?

@@harrygrimley4352 100% agree. It didn't look like a campsite besides a large ring of rocks. I cant remember if there was an established campsite there or not in the maps

We did not. It may be different since this is a 2003, but I can tell you the airbags did not deploy. Also I found this quick search about my SRS light which is always on because the disconnection. "It's important to know that if your SRS light is on, your airbag system is not functioning. If you are in an accident, the airbag will not deploy. This can increase your risk of injury in an accident." Jan 21, 2021

Love the colors of winter in the mountains

Definitely felt good about the two songs for this one

I had a head piece but never wanted to wear it haha

Then get a camera stabilizer, making us seasick. Nice report, though. Thanks.

It is worth a day if you are in the area. Thank you!

Definitely! Might have been my longest day hike and I never made it to the summit

I did, the following day went into the Chisos Basin and hiked up Emory Peak

I have increased my calories since thanks for notice!

Definitely a good one

A beautiful park with plenty to see and do!
