Today we traveled from Guadalupe Mountains National Park near Salt Flats, TX to Fort Bliss in El Paso, TX. As we left Pine Springs Campground we got another beautiful view of El Capitan and Guadalupe Peak (the highest point in Texas). The sun peaked through the clouds to shine directly on Capitan and really made it stand out as a beacon in the desert. No wonder the early pioneers did exactly that. We also passed the gypsum sand dunes west of the mountains. It was a neat contrast, but not nearly as magnificent as the White Sands in NM.
