Download or read book Big Bend Country Texas Wink Travel Guide written by Wink Travel Wink Travel Guide and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-07 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Big Bend Country is a region in Texas. It is also referred to as the Big Bend region. The Big Bend area of Texas represents one of the last vestiges of open frontier that once encompassed the entire state. Outside of the major cities the area is largely unmolested by development; one can experience a small taste of what the unexplored state once resembled. Geography varies widely, from wide open prairie grasslands, to vast desert expanses. Far western Texas is quite mountainous; it is home to Guadalupe Peak, the highest point in Texas. The flatlands of the Permian Basin remain a center for petroleum production for the US. The wildlife is also representative of an outsider's expectation; during the daytime hours it is not unusual to see a roadrunner or armadillo wandering alongside the road, and at night the far away wail of a coyote is commonplace.
