Big Bend Vista

Retro photo. Layered cumulus clouds billow south of this arid scenic overlook from the SW Rim along the South Rim Loop trail at Big Bend National Park in SW Texas on Monday, May 28, 1984. The altitude at this point was around 7,000 feet above sea level. This view was part of a two-day backpacking trip along the 12.4-mile trail which in addition to me included friends Tom Bellinger and Chuck Parks.
