Hiking in Big Bend National Park, Texas

Just a few of the hiking opportunities in Big Bend National Park. Our trip was 25-28 May 2009 and we lucked out with quite a bit of overcast skies. If you want to hike in the park anytime after mid-May, assume you will have 100+ degree (F) days, just to play it safe. The good thing about camping in the park this time of year is that there is plenty of space in the campgrounds.

All video and images were shot with a Nikon D90 DSLR camera. I'm still working on my video techniques, so the exposure is a bit off in some shots. Plus I didn't bring my tripod on the hikes, so it gets a bit shaky. I also think I need to move the camera slower when panning around. Any other suggestions?

The park's website has lots of great info:
