Review: Fresno Vista — Big Bend Ranch State Park

My favorite place in Texas hands down. A million times better than Big Bend NP in my opinion, the panoramic views of Contrabando Trail West here are unchallenged. Fresno Creek/Fresno Divide is what I chose for the cover of my book "TEXAS BADLANDS: The Black and White Journey," (available on Amazon) and featured in Chapter 4 "The Other Side of Nowhere."

Furthermore this is the best hike in Texas!!! Follow the trail down the divide and break left into Fresno Creek for an amazing hike through the creek canyon walls, rock formations, and ruins all the way to the Buena Serte Flotation Mill and Wit-Roy Mine under the Flatiron Mountains. I saw Aoudads and wild Burros at the apex of the creek where water collects in a pool. You wont regret it!!!
