Big Bend - Hot Springs

Yesterday we hiked up to the hot springs here in Big Bend. As you can see by the pictures it was a lovely hike and Mary thoroughly enjoyed her soak in the hot water (105*) The horses you see are across the Rio Grande in Mexico.

The road to the "Hot Spring" was narrow and rough, not suitable for big vehicles or cars built close to the ground.

 Old buildings from the days this area was farmed. You can see irrigation ditches throughout the camping area.

 Mary in the "Hot Spring" At one time there was a building here with individual bathing benches.

 Mexican horses came down for some water. One horse was hobbled and had to limp to move forward.

Today we leave for Fort Davis. Not sure when we will get there, just travelling as the wind blows. Not sure when I'll be able to post again as we will be boondocking as much as possible. In Texas it is legal to camp overnight in their picnic areas. Have a great day.
