This is a remote and picturesque 20,000-acre preserve at the ecological
junction of the Chihuahuan Desert, the Hill Country and the Tamaulipan
Brushlands of northern Mexico. The terrain is dry and treeless, but the nearby
Devils River springs provide sufficient moisture for groves of pecans, sycamores
and live oaks. Bring all necessary food, water, gas and other supplies. Open by
reservation only. Admission charge. 830/395-2133. www.tpwd.state.tx.us/spdest/findadest/parks/devils_river/fee.phtml.
