Thinking of making a trip to Palo Dura Canyon in October. Any suggestions for campgrounds, anything not to miss while there, etc. This will be our first time there.
Our preference is the Mesquite campground which is the furtherest down the Canyon. The Park has several good day hikes with The Lighthouse being the one not to miss. The Panhandle Plains Museun in Canyon is well worth a visit. Hope you enjoy your stay.
