Chisos Basin in Big Bend Natl Park.  Finally, some green.

   Beautiful rock formations.  Temp is 78 because of altitude.

 Rio Grande Village Hot Springs area.  That is a Mexican crossing the Rio Grande River after collecting the money left my Americans who purchased his hand crafted pieces of art.

 We walked 1.4 miles to the hot springs via the mountain trail.

 This is the Hot Springs.  It is of course quite warm.  After we left there were a couple of gals on the way to soak.  It was so hot here.  I really got a sunburn on my arms.  When we left the temp in the truck read 99 and before we got out of the canyon it read 101.  Did I mention it was HOT here!!!

 Our first desert ride on the quads.  It was so different than Quartzsite.

 We rode up one wash to the dam the earlier cattlemen made.

 The locals call it 'Top of the World'.  It is the highest point accessible by quads.

 On 'top of the world' looking out over the valley below.  In the far distance is the Chisos Mt range separating Mx from the US.
