4 Palo Duro
Some places simply warrant more attention. One of the most illustrious sites in the world is known by very few except regular adventure-goers. These travelers are awed by Palo Duro Canyon State Park as its deep, red landscape appears seemingly out of nowhere. The canyon, similar in length to the Grand Canyon in Arizona, has scenic views just as glorious as those of the more famous canyon. During the day, punishing sun heats every visible crevice; during the night, soothing winds cool secluded campgrounds. Coyotes can be heard in the distance as the winds sweep through the valley, echoing the howls off the steep canyon walls. Come dawn, visitors are rewarded with stunning views of the erosion that has taken place over millions of years, or of the rocks impossibly balanced on one another and their relentless determination to remain unmoved. This place and its striking diversity deserve recognition for doing exactly what nature does best: providing wonder to all. The best times to visit Palo Duro Canyon State Park are early spring and late fall.
