We made two border crossings this week, one near Columbus into Mexico and another into Texas. We found a gem of a park in El Paso with Franklin Mountain State Park. The park was created in 1979 and is the largest urban park in the nation at 24,247 acres, covering some 37 square miles. We hiked the Aztec Cave Trail (1.2 miles up) today and after a week of no hiking found it a nice challenge. Good vertical elevation change and the trails are easy to follow. The views from the top are unbelievable and we had the park all to ourselves. No other campers as the locals have yet to figure this place out. For the RV'ers that like to hike, this is a great place and undiscovered.
