Thanks for that information. I rented a quaint little trailer for the weekend in Terlingua near the old ghost town. The place doesn't look like much but has very high ratings. We are planning on spending the whole day east of there in the park.

Here is the place were are staying.

If you are looking to just explore the park then terlingua is the place to stay for sure. That being said, I would ride the road from presidio to terlingua, it is awsome. and some how go through fort davis.

I love it out there. last year I tent camped with my family for a week in the park and it was great. We went march 1st and weather was good

 

 

If in Terlingua, and you want to experience a "real" place go to La Kiva!!! Real people, great food, drinks and music. Big Bend is beautiful!

 

Looks like you will be heading out in the morning, Ride safe and have fun!!!
Wife and I plus two of our friends will be heading out Saturday morning to Kerrville, then Sunday morning one of the sister's before heading to Marfa for a couple of days. Its a shame i am not more organized, we could have figured a way to ride together, but you definitely got the rite idea riding with your brother and all. Come Wednesday morning heading to Cloud-croft NM, via Fort Davis if we hadn't already seen it by then. After that probably back down to Carlsbad and start plotting a course to get back home, (Houston) by Sunday the 27th.
Lots of good ideas on this thread, Reata Restaurant, Fort Davis, and La Kiva. Feel free to steer me in the rite direction if any body has any other good ideas, thanks!
Daniel
