Strawhouse and Telephone Canyon

Anybody have a GPS track (.gpx) of the Strawhouse and Telephone Canyon trails?

BK, I don't. But the trail, particularly if you are tracking your location via GPS, shouldn't be too hard to follow, based on my limited experience on the Telephone Canyon portion of the trail. You might get a little bit lost but it should not be too bad since the topography will direct you back to the trail.

P.S. Here's an 2003 shot using a Canon A40 looking north from behind Alto Relex. One of my favorite Big Bend pixs by mua:

I agree with Al. The area is pretty easy to navigate through. In my trip there in 2007 (http://griffisfamilyoutdoors.blogspot.com/2007/01/13-62007-big-bend-national-park-tx.html) I don't believe I ever even took out my compass. My location was always easy to determine just by looking at the topo.

Dang BK, if I just had that datalogger 

Yep Telephone Canyon trail is easy to follow and straight forward especially going W-E, the hardest part to find is, if you are heading West, the exit from the main drainage when it climbs over the Dead Horse ridge.  Strawhouse it much easier to follow North to South as the top is not easy to determine which is the correct wash to go up when going S-N.  The northern jct. with the Telephone canyon trail is easy to find as there is a large cairn on top of a boulder.
