Went to Big Bend National Park in Texas!!!
First two pictures are along the Emory Peak trail with a view of what they call The Window. The rocks are from a rhyolitic lava flow.
Third picture is of the eclipse.
Fourth is of mini potholes or vugs from a random rock I climbed into.
Fifth is the trail heading to the Rio Grande depicting the Santa Elena Canyon.

Last post about the trip. Mom and I driving to Santa Elena Canyon. One side is the United States and the other is Mexico. The Rio Grand is so low you can physically but not legally just walk into Mexico, and now I get mad when I think it about too much and it’s a real quick trip. It’s so stupid and it belonged to Mexico first.
Also, it’s fucked up that people can own mountains. How. The mountain can only belong to itself. Humans are stupid.

Thinking about national parks now and how I'd love to go to more of them. I'm going to list the ones I've visited and a thing or two I remember about each of them.
Acadia: thunder hole and the rocky shores
Badlands: the prairie hike and the way you can hike off trail, scooting down a very steep descent on my butt because it was better than falling headfirst
Big Bend: hot springs, jays in the Chisos Mountains, Ross Maxwell Scenic drive and sunset near Santa Elena Canyon
Bryce Canyon: the sun hitting the hoodoos late in the day
Carlsbad Caverns: bats and the descent, learning about the ascent into Halloween Hall
Gateway Arch: I didn't realize this was a national park?? It's surprisingly narrow but it was interesting seeing the mechanism to get to the top.
Grand Canyon: on the north side black squirrels and a storm rolling in, on the south side the classic view
Grand Teton: sunrise against the mountains, getting caught between a moose and a bear on a trail
Smoky Mountains: the fall colors, the way the fog really is mysterious and thick and smoky
Guadalupe Mountains: Smith Spring and the transition from scrub to forest
Indiana Dunes: spending a day at the beach before it became a national park, the bog hike, taking a solo hike in the rain while my friends slept
Mammoth Cave: the ice-cream cone formation, a playground at the motel (i was very young)
White Sands: my deep desire to spot a lizard, the bright white of it all, admiration for people doing multi-mile hikes
Yellowstone: my dad wearing socks on his ears because we did not expect winter weather in June, Moose Valley, my brother and i picking out the smallest hot springs and naming them after ourselves
Yosemite: lots of big ravens, bridalveil fall viewed at a distance, sequoias
Zion: bighorn sheep, peeking into the narrows, promising myself i'd come back with people who aren't afraid of heights and hike angel's landing
#national parks#np diary#<- maybe i'll remember that tag (unlikely) and add to this if I get to visit another park

Santa Elena Canyon, three views
We arrived at Santa Elena Canyon late in the day and the parking lot was nearly full, but beginning to empty. We met several group heading out as we walked toward the river. By the time we were at the mouth of the canyon, it felt like we had the place nearly to ourselves.
The favored light – the one you see in the posters and postcards – hits the canyons in the morning. We were there late in the…
