"The Lost Mine trail serves as an outstanding introduction to the flora and fauna of the Chisos Mountains. Only one mile into the hike, there is a saddle offering great views of Casa Grande, Juniper Canyon, and the greater Chisos basin.
The remainder of the trail climbs steeply from the parking lot going in and out of juniper, oak, and pine forests. The trail abruptly levels out at the ridge with superb views of Pine Canyon and the Sierra del Carmen in Mexico. At just under 5 miles round trip, this is surely one of the best day hikes in Big Bend. Be sure to bring water and snacks and arrive early as the parking fills up quickly here."
