A hidden desert oasis in Big Bend National Park. There is a waterfall, nice shade, flowering plants, etc at this location. I once saw a mountain lion here too. It was all of 40' away from me. Quite a great moment and neat animal to see up close.This is the base the falls in the dry winter season. As you can see there is still a seep of water spilling down the rocks and a pool at the base. The water cascades down over some rocks into several small pools under tall trees before it seeps back into the ground the you return to the desert. All in all this is maybe an two acres of oasis in a harsh land.
Keep these places pure. Tread lightly.
