There's a story here, somewhere

What had happened was. . .

Friday is San Antonio; Saturday is Seminole. There are two hikes here; the first is about 10 miles roundtrip from the campground to where Seminole Canyon empties into the Rio Grande. Pressa Canyon is a side canyon that joins with Seminole Canyon. The second is a roughly 1/2 mile to the windmill ruin (it's still there). The Pecos River High Bridge (275 feet above the water) is a few miles west of the campground. Westex49 -- Armastad is at capacity.

Seminole Canyon is just west of Del Rio and just north of the Rio Grande. One of the trails in Seminole Canyon State Historical park leads to an old windmill ruin. It was built in the 1800's to provide water for livestock. There's a natural spring under the windmill.Outside Inside Detail Spring
