How Stuff Works - Big Bend
« on: April 06, 2008, 08:21:11 AM »
Came across this website this morning.  Good article on BIBE.  They reference Big Bend as a great place for sandboarding.  Never thought of BIBE being known for that.  Could they be referring to the sand dunes that over in Boquillas Canyon?

I was checking out the photo gallery they have for Big Bend and got a nice surprise to see a water fall I have never heard of and I also learned that Big Bend has lush green pastures with plenty of Bison. :eusa_shhh: :eusa_shhh: :eusa_shhh:

I'm willing to bet, based on James's observation of Bison and water falls, that they are more referring to Monahans Sandhills State Park
