We’ve been Big Benders since 2004, traveling through, hiking in, and camping at Big Bend’s Chihuahuan Desert from one end to the other. When the call of wilderness and isolation screams from afar, we will return.

"As I went walking
That ribbon of highway,
I saw above me
The endless skyway;
I saw below me
The lonesome valley;

This land was made for you and me."

Woody Guthrie, This Land is Your Land
