About twenty miles west of Big Bend National Park is a very small town on the Rio Grande River named Lajitas. Years ago a wealthy man bought up the whole town and tried to turn it into a ritzy golf resort. He did so, but he went bankrupt in the process.
The 20,000 acre resort is now owned by a Dallas billionaire. It has the best RV park around so we checked into the Maverick Ranch at Lajitas. The resort has a beautiful 18-hole golf course right on the Rio Grande and offers such activities as shooting, zip lines, hiking trails, equestrian events, and jeep rentals. There is a restaurant here, a saloon, and a general store.
A visitor here sees this logo on signs and door mats throughout the resort.
One certainly can see the similarity to the mountain peak behind our RV park.
