From our next stop in Fort Stockton, we took a ride farther south to Davis Mountains State Park near Fort Davis, Tx. Hiking here, we were warned of the rattlers and the hog nose skunks, luckily we saw neither. In the park is a campground and a lodge. Because the terrain was so rough, we took three short hikes. To get to one, we drove the Skyline Drive. The views are spectacular as you cross the highest point in the park. The lodge has been done as small adobe houses. The trails are rugged and steep so we never got far on either. Digger does enjoy walking the trails, too.

The highest point in this area, Mount Livermore

Plains, mesas, and mountains 
Yes, that is a trail.

The 5000 foot altitude slowed us but not Digger 
Imagine riding a horse here 150 years ago
