One of my favorite trails in Big Bend National Park leads through a unique geological formation called Grapevine Hills, deep into the desert just north of the Chisos Mountains. Hiking into this unique canyon is a bit like stepping foot on another planet. The rock formations are intriguing to explore and the scale is difficult to comprehend, especially for small creatures like my little friend here. It’s not often that Jack and I hire a trail guide but this little feller came highly recommended and he seemed to find the trail markers with no trouble at all.
