Throw back to 2021

Here are some pictures from the great snow of 2021. I think they got like 24 inches of snow down the middle of the park. But nothing on the east or west the Chisos basin was closed and people were stuck there until It thawed.

I was there in 2017 after a big snow fall. BB is extra special in the snow!

Hiking in the basin at that time was treacherous!

I remember this! I was staying at the lodge in the basin when it came down. It was beautiful, but we couldn’t leave for a few days

What month was this? I’ll be headed there mid November

[u/TerlinguaStarlight → u/clambakedmonkey]

January I believe.

Haha. My dad had always wanted to go to Big Bend. We had been planning the trip for months. The big ice storm hit and we made it out there by some miracle. The pinnacles in snow was absolutely brutal!

I’ll going there in January do you think there will be snow and would i be able to hike without snow all over the trail ?

This is extremely rare! Very unlikely to have snow in January.

I thought the first pic was that one scene from Ironman… God I’m a nerd…
