In this revised edition of Adventures in the Big
Bend, Jim Glendinning offers a completely updated and even more
comprehensive review of the beautiful Big Bend region. Described in this
edition are six different national and state parks, eight adventures for
the energetic visitor, and detailed mile-by-mile directions for five
driving routes, including backcountry roads. Lodgings, restaurants, and
events in fourteen different communities are also included.
Learn how to book a luxury resort in the desert or a rustic cabin in
the Davis Mountains, where to view world famous art or listen to cowboy
poetry, dance under the stars, eat barbecue, raft the Rio Grande, or
hike to 7,835 feet – the variety is enormous.
Still a mystery to many, remote and wonderful as always, Big Bend is
ready to reveal its secrets to the reader of
Adventures in the Big Bend.
