The highest peak is Emory Peak at 7825' above sea level.
I got out of the car to take this picture. You're welcome. Yet, somehow, it's still blurry.
I try. I try really hard to take nice photos for you. I blame my camera. Often.
Within the center of the Chisos is the Basin. There is a restaurant, visitor's guide, ranger station, a lodge, and a supplies store. From here, you can hike many trails, eat some ice cream, and watch out for bear and mountain lions. We saw a bear but no cougars. I'm not too sad about that.
These mountains are so gorgeous even my Suburban looks good up here. Lookin' good, Silly Bus!
As we had already seen the Santa Elena canyon, potentially broken the law at the Rio Grande, and almost ran over a black bear, we decided on the easy hike to see the "Window".
Here we are, we made it to the placard explaining to us what we are seeing in the distance. Hi, kids!
But I did finally get Photoshop, so here is the "Window" in artistic style #3. Or something. Actually, I have no idea how I got the above photo to look like this, but whatever, I like it, it looks cool, and it is now the design of my business cards.Photoshop is a complete mystery to me.
One for my home-girl, Nina.
