Big Bend National Park "Cross Canyon Trail" 14 mile Solo(ish) Hike

2 years ago

Bella and I take on a grueling 14 mile round trip hike to a lush desert oasis on the banks of the Rio Grande River which serves as the boundary line of the US/Mexico border in Big Bend National Park. This trail is extremely isolated and rugged. Take plenty of food, water, and be prepared to possibly spend the night. Actually, you will definitely want to spend the night at the river, it's that beautiful!

Protips - Bring a portable water filter like the MSR Miniworks so you can refill at the river, wear snake gaiters, start early before the heat sets in, leave a note in your car windshield telling park rangers where you went and what time you expect to return
