The View from Guadalupe Peak Trail

Drive up Hwy 54 from Van Horn to the Guadalupe Mountains National Park, and within an hour you see one of the most impressive sights from a Texas highway, the mountain called El Capitan. But adventurous hikers are treated to an even more spectacular view...up Guadalupe Peak to see the back end of El Capitan from the Guadalupe Peak Trail, and the desert floor down in the distance.
