Words cannot describe its beauty. 

The downside: it's a 3 hour drive to Del Rio, and then another 3 hours from there to San Antonio.  Even flying from within the US it will take a day to get here.  And stock up on food and water no later than Del Rio (check out Wal Mart in Uvalde if possible) - this is the isolated desert.  There are no strip malls.  There is barely potable water in the towns on the park's west.
