I would check out along Old Ore Road. There are some stretches along it where you don't have to go too far to be out of sight and mind. Do some Google Earthing. There is a short trail just south of Ernst Tinaja that will get you into Ernst Basin. Look for places where Tornillo Creek and its drainages are close to OOR. The same is true near Terlingua Abajo and the Terlingua Creek drainages.
I love that area now that you mention it. The point on the road where you see boulders just feet from the road and a wall to the west to admire is pretty awesome.....thanks
