😎 😎 Coming Soon

Well, the high winds this year finally did in our Lotus Tents. 😢 Moving on and introducing Adventure Pods back at our popular spot on Kempf Rd.

The six pods are constructed of concrete of modern concrete architecture that features crisp geometric lines - huff and puff and try and blow these down!

Each pod features a super comfy queen bed, high-end pillows, in-room AC/Heat, sink, mini fridge, Keurig coffee maker with pods, Berkey water filtration system, interior seating, lamps and more. Outside sit by your private fire pit with grill for cooking over the fire and you gaze at the night sky. Each pod has access to a large, boathouse with private toilets and showers and a bonus coffee room for additional seating.

The pods are located just down Kempf Rd from Venga Cafe in the ghosttown - literally minutes from everything. Each pod faces the Chisos Mountains - great sunrise and sunset experience.

We are working on the pods now and have not listed them on our website. First available date to book is Dec 4. However, we are offering for a limited time a $175 per night special - you simply email [email protected] and see if your dates are available and we will get you booked. The pods will go live on our website this weekend so giddy up now.

🆘 🆘

For what it’s worth - all of the man camps in Terlingua and Study Butte will be empty of contractors and their trailers over next day or so - as mentioned, many of the trailers are ending up in the massive lay down yard 10-15 miles north of Study Butte.

For what it’s worth, two workers confirmed “they will be back to Terlingua in 2-4 weeks.”

Sigh…

Ever since CBP commissioner paused the wall contractor in Big Bend National Park a few weeks ago - and they pulled all their equipment out - the man camps in the RV parks in Terlingua have basically been empty.

However, they all started showing up last night. Here we go….

Out at Stillwell near Black Gap Wildlife Management area - east side of National Park.

New RV/ man camp - wasn’t here two weeks ago - 50+ hook ups. Water pipes (blue) and fiber optic (orange) in lay down yard that has been here for several weeks.

Approx 5 semi truck trailers hauling in water this morning - assume this is from the well in Marathon, TX to the north .

Looks like full steam ahead in Black Gap. (Note drove all the way into Black Gap last night and camped - all the way to fish camp 23/24. No survey stakes etc… At least not yet.

Annual national park pass anyone?

Trump just spent two weeks hammering out a surveillance road thats supposed to stretch about 3 miles along the Rio Grande and be festooned with a 4-6ft steel vehicle barrier.

You can barely walk in this area much less drive. Due to everyone’s hard work and reporting, its all abandoned as of today. Contractors pulled out. Another wasting of millions of tax dollars on a ridiculous project for political purposes. I am so tired of dumb.
