Our next stop is Carlsbad Caverns National Park. I visited here in 1957, before it became a National Park. We are too late for a tour today so we buy tickets for tomorrow. We take an RV site in White's City.

Guadalupe Mountains National Park, TX
We head north and visit Guadalupe Mountains National Park. El Capitan is the highest point in Texas at 8,749 feet. There are no roads into this park. If you want to visit any of the peaks you're 'gonna hafta' hike in. These mountains are an ancient marine fossil reef that formed 270 million years ago in a tropical ocean that covered what is now Texas and New Mexico. They are the native home to the Mescalero Apache.
