Mule Ears Spring Trail–Big Bend National Park
2011 May 9
This is my slideshow of the Mule Ears Spring Trail in Big Bend National Park. The hike to Mule Ears Spring is about 4 miles round trip. It is an intermediate trail that crosses several arroyos and winds its way through a rock corral on the way to the spring which is marked by large cottonwood trees. Throughout the hike the Mule Ears, which are exposed dikes of volcanic ash, are visible along with breathtaking vistas of Santa Elena Canyon. The small stones piled at various points along the trail are markers.
