Howdee all,
Our last Big Bend hike of our visit…
3-29-2010
Burro Mesa Pouroff trail
I mile round trip
Difficulty- Easy
……………………………………….
The trail starts by winding thru a sandy gravely wash…
I suppose this looks very different after some rain.
Lots of cactus and scrub here..
The trail leaves the wash and travels to the right of the wash..
Unidentified flycatcher..Any ideas? 
This is a dry wash most of the year but contains a large amount of water when there are rains on Burro Mesa. 
You cant see the pouroff until you get fairly close to it.
It was a hot day and it felt great to get in the shadow of the pouroff.
I would love to see what this pouroff looks like after a hard rain…
Must be a beautiful waterfall..
Jeff looks tiny compared to the high rock wall…
Remember to bring plenty of water..especially on a hot day..
The temps in Big Bend are starting to climb..when we did the hike it was in the 90s..
A few critters we met along the way..
Check out the pink and bright green on this one.. 
I think these are different..but not sure..the first one was larger..
I rather liked this prickly pear cactus without the large thorns.. 
Another great hike in Big bend…and our last one..
Until we visit again..
I know we will…We really enjoyed our stay.
Goodbye for now Big Bend..♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
