Big Bend National Park is located in SW Texas on the Rio Grande River. We spend an action-packed day hiking, soaking in the hot spring, swimming in the Rio Grande River and crossing the River into Mexico for lunch in Boquillas. Join us on this incredible Spring Break adventure!

Very trusting that people won't just steal their crafts. You're Spanish makes me laugh! You son has great vocabulary! Good on him! Donkeys! No goat tacos? Oh well. :-) Looks like a great lunch. those jalepenos! Ha! Great trip~ . Thanks for sharing!

  • I know it’s an older video but we recently finished up our big trip for the year. A three week road trip to WestTexas and Southern New Mexico. Just wanted to share my thoughts and experience as this was a first time visit to this region and these parks. Wow oh wow was this park just incredible. I was in awe. I don’t really rank parks but this is in the upper echelon for me. We were fortunate to spend five full days in the Big Bend area, one day for the state park and four days for the national park. We camped in the Chisos Basin campground which I would highly recommend. It’s as centrally located in the park as you can get, cooler temperatures than the desert floor, and we had an amazing view of Casa Grande from our campsite. Unfortunately the Boquallias crossing and the hot springs were closed due to COVID so we didn’t get to experience those places. However, we had plenty of highlights. Some of those being the River Road scenic drive from Presidio to Terlingua (spectacular), Santa Elena Canyon, Balanced Rock, Closed Canyon and Hoodoos Trail in the state park, various trails up in the Chisos Basin, and those sunsets and dark skies every night. The big miss for me was not being able to summit Emory Peak or make it out to the South Rim. Gives me a reason to return and I would return in a heartbeat.
  • I'm really glad you did a video on Big Bend because I've never been to this National Park. It was funny when you were hollering across the river to the Mexicans telling them you liked their music. Lol You work really hard with the camera work obviously especially on the boat scene . I can tell you left the camera on the shores which you guys rowed back to get it. Plus the fact that you're lugging around the camera on a tripod the whole time. I need to probably get business cards with my YouTube channel on it as well :). Very good video my friend.
  • What a really neat experience! Looks like you guys had an awesome day! That is something that I would like to do! Bueno!

    Looks like an awesome trip! Hope to get out there ourselves within the next couple of years :) Thanks for taking us along guys, hope you have a great week! - Shane
  • Riding in a rowboat across the Rio Grande! Sweet! I love in your videos how you add those special moments like - the discussion about uncomfortable donkey rides to Bethlehem while riding the Mexican trail, eating jalapeños for lunch and drinking every beverage on the table (way to go Shane!), and the smiles all around. You make me want to visit Big Bend! . . . Mike
