CAMPING TRIP IN BIG BEND RANCH

For spring break this year, the Fab Fam took a camping road trip across the Southwest. We went from our home in Austin to Big Bend Ranch State Park in West Texas

Big Bend Ranch State Park prides itself on being rugged and relatively untouched, which gives you this incredibly unplugged feeling. Most of the roads in the state park are unpaved, with a vast majority of them being rocky.

We camped at Yedra 1 (named for being in Yedra Canyon), which was as far as our Highlander would have been able to drive before it got far more primitive.

Ojito Adentro trail is good for families since the hike isn’t terribly long, since it leads to a shaded oasis (therefore you’re not hiking in the sun the whole time), and since it involves getting to climb over and between boulders (a kid’s dream).

EL SOLITARIO

El Solitario is an ancient, 10-mile wide collapsed volcanic dome. The boys were incredibly fascinated with learning how it was formed.
