Are there any Escapees planning on going to Big Bend National Park from the HOuston area, this fall or winter? I'd like to go, never been....flexible on time table....have a Class C, no toad....
Thanks!
It's a beautiful place in November when the cottonwoods are in brilliant yellow colors. It's a popular time to be there.
Weather-wise the best time to visit Big Bend is from late September to mid-May. Peak times are from November through April, and if you are traveling during this time you'll want to reserve accommodations well in advance. No matter what time of year you travel be prepared for changing weather.

yes, I know how beautiful BB is, which is why I want to go; but I'd like to travel with another RV if possible...
Thanks Tom,
that's what I've been reading...

It's a very easy drive from Houston. Take I-10 and get off in Fort Stockton Hwy 395 and it will take you directly to the Visitor Center.

If you travel by yourself in your RV to other places, Big Bend isn't that much different and probably safer than traveling through cities.
For an easy and comfortable drive: go from Houston to San Antonio, stay a few days. On to Del Rio for a couple of days. From Del Rio an easy drive to Sanderson and stay at http://www.campgroundreviews.com/regions/texas/sanderson/canyons-rv-park-8188 . Be sure to stop a the TX Hwy visitor center in Langtry. Not much in Sanderson but a good place to spend the night to break up the drive. Or go on to Marathon to the RV Park there. Then on down into the park for a couple of weeks. Great dry camping inside the park at Rio Grande Village and at Cottonwood CG's.
