Photography Tips

Anytime other than the middle of the day is going to be great here. The sunset I saw here was pretty magical, and Big Bend is a certified Dark Sky zone so this would be a phenomenal place for some astrophotography with a magnificent foreground. The overlook is basically at the top of a hill, so you'll have very solid views in all directions. My preference is shooting west, though.

Travel Information

There's parking right at the overlook.
