Ep. 226: Davis Mountains, Texas | RV travel camping Marfa Fort Davis

Mountains may not be the first thing that comes to mind about Texas, but the Davis Mountains are a tall sky island in the vast, flat desert of West Texas. The highest peak is Mount Livermore at 8,383 feet, the fifth-highest point in Texas. In this week's Grand Adventure, while staying at Davis Mountain RV Park we explore the Davis Mountains and their surroundings including Davis Mountains State Park, the McDonald Observatory, the fascinating Fort Davis National Historic Site, and the towns of Fort Davis and Marfa.

ABOUT US Welcome to Grand Adventure, a YouTube channel that focuses on RV-centric outdoor activities including not only of course camping, but also mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, skiing and more, always filmed in stunning 4K. We're based in Salt Lake City, Utah during the winter months, and invite you to come along as we travel all around the U.S. My wife Patricia and I, and dog Zoe are avid boondockers, so while you'll occasionally find us in RV parks or even dry campgrounds, we're usually camped in some of the most remote and beautiful spots that you could ever pull a travel trailer into. We've now transitioned from "long-timing" for six months a year, to living and traveling in our RV full-time. We'll provide beautiful travel videos, as well as some tips and insight on trip planning, and equipping and maintaining your RV to make your next adventure a grand one indeed! So, subscribe to make sure that you catch every episode, and remember...life is nothing but a Grand Adventure!
