ORAC's Summer trip!!!
Join us as we had to the desert to whitewater raft, soak in some hot springs and hike!
Come kick off our desert tour with us as we visit Big Bend National Park in Texas! Between hiking up in the mountains, exploring slot canyons and hot springs, along with whitewater rafting, we plan to hit all the sights in our time there. Big Bend is home to the Chisos Mountain Range, and the Rio Grande River runs through the park before entering Mexico. This national park also has the least light pollution of any park in the continental United States, and it is estimated that you can see upwards of 2,000 stars at once on a clear night. Get ready to get close with group members, because we’re about to kick off the summer with a mega road trip!
