Big Bend is described as one of the most remote and least visited parks in the lower 48…we can attest to that. Our isolated campground had full hookups, and wifi good enough to write this blog post, but no cell service. The closest city was 45 miles away. It was awesome.

This park is Carlsbad Caverns lesser known nextdoor neighbor. Just a few miles down the road, and across the border into Texas, Guadalupe Mountains offers an above-ground and high-elevation perspective of the area. Roads are in short supply, but hiking trails are abundant!
