I visited here the first time for an ultra marathon event called Wild Canyon. After many years only visiting Palo Duro, it was about time. I had no idea Caprock had so much to offer.
Probably the most well-known and important point is that they have a free roaming herd of bison in the park. That's right, Texans don't have to go all the way to Yellowstone just to try their luck of surviving petting a bison. But seriously, don't pet the fluffy cows.
There's so much more here than just bison though. Plenty of bird watching opportunities, miles on miles of trails, and camping, to name a few. I camped here very comfortably, although there are plenty of noisy coyotes and nosy raccoons, so it's still a good idea to keep your food put away.
The visitor center is very well done with friendly staff, clean restrooms, and plenty of souvenirs to choose from. This is the best place to start your visit so definitely come give this park a shot. read more
