Palo Dura Canyon
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.
I agree that the Panhandle/Plains Museum is well worth the time. The entire town of Canyon is very nice and is a college town but it is dry. In Amarillo is Siezmore's RV Land and RV museum. That is also worth a stop. Jack and his son took us on a tour of the new section and their plans are fantastic. No Charge and a good RV store too. They have the converted bus from the movie RV and the first ever Itasca.
There is a RV park on the east side of the highway and north side of Palo Duro Cyn Rd, very close to the hwy but lower and pretty quiet. That time of year you will have pleanty of elbow room and full hookup.
