Description
Sometimes it is better to give than to receive, but what about when that gift is Texas-sized? The state of Texas gave Big Bend to the National Park Service. What makes it worth preserving and protecting? Has that changed with time? Come explore why we became a park and why this big gift is so special.
Chisos Basin Amphitheater. Bring a flashlight and dress warmly. A cushion to sit upon or a blanket to wrap up in feels good on chilly nights.
