Mountains Made of Cheese?

25-Feb-2015
Big Bend National Park
Los Chisos Mountains
Texas USA
Sometimes in Mexico if you-re not careful


Turns out Chisos is not the Spanish word for Cheese.
So these are not mountains made of cheese.
Apparently its volcanic activity hundreds of millions of years ago
If you’re into all that stuff

Sitting in High Sierra Restaurant in Terlingua Texas eating and drinking.
Trying to catch up on the blog.’

We spent 2 days around the Chisos Basin and made a few hikes.
Had a few cocktails ..... took a nap in the gunship in the parking lot after a lunch with too many cocktails.

Pretty much another outstanding  couple of days on the trails.
The sites were good in the Chisos- a mish mash of sedimentary and pyroclastic activity.

And fossils
