Dear Hikers and such:

I'm planning a backpacking/primitive camping trip to the Big Bend NP at the beginning of 2007. I visited the Big Bend several years ago and loved the land, but I had time only for some short hikes. So this time I would like to have two 3-day/2-nights solo hikes in the more remote areas of the park. I love solo hikes and I've hiked a lot in Europe (I'm from Poland, hence my site name), Montana, Washington State, Georgia, both Carolinas, and now in Florida, where I live - yes, you can have some exciting backpacking trips here! I'm thinking about exploring Mesa de Anguila in BBNP. Would you share your experience with that area? Will I find solitude there? Will March be a good time for my trip? Any other areas in the park you would like to suggest (I'm thinking about Elephant Tusk area as well)? I'll really appreciate all you anserws!

If you have not done so already, you might post your question at www.bigbendchat.com The folks that hang out there have an incredible knowledge of Big Bend.
