The Undiscovered Big Bend

October 22 - 25

A brand new trip in the Big Bend of Texas! We will be rebuilding ruggedness in our spirit in a remote area of the Big Bend Ranch State Park. An undiscovered secret, this area sees few visitors. We will hike an extinct volcano and summit several volcanic plugs from which we will be able to see deep into Mexico. We’ll also summit several mountains and explore terrain with traces from early 20th century and early 19th century inhabitants. The trip includes hoodoo rock formations, the Rio Grande, mountains, and incredible expansive views. Sign up today!

Fierro Peak within the larger Solitario Basin, an extinct volcano.
