Big Bend is a stunning place. My dad took me out there when I was 12 or 13. The highlight was taking a whole day to start out on the desert floor, hike up blue creek canyon to the south rim, and down into the basin. It's one of my favorite memories. I was almost too tired to stand by the end.

If you have the chance to go in March, all the cactuses boom. If you get the chance to go with a geologist, that's interesting too.

Enchanted Rock is a fun little park. Crawl through the caves on the back side. They hit capacity kind of early on weekends when the weather's nice though.
