Christmas Mountains, seen from Hwy 118 near the Ross Maxwell junction,  inside Big Bend National Park.  (Scroll for panarama)
 
Left mountain  is Little Christmas;  Border between the Christmas Mountain Ranch and the BBNP is below the great limestone layers that sandwitch the igneous lava, at the base of the mountain.  Easiest access from this point, would be through the visible valley going right up to the base of the Christmas.    Far right in photo is Slick Rock in BBNP.
 
 
There is still time to contact General Land Office Commissioner Jerry Patterson to let him know how the Christmas Mountains should remain in public hands (Big Bend National Park).   You can contact him,  by going to the Texas General Land office web site, and email to their address.
