essay bro
The Brazos River flows for almost 20 miles
thru a spectacular, sheer-walled, granite gorge equal in proportions and
appearance to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. Numerous waterfalls of 10 to 30 feet
high splash thru this crevasse called
“The Brazos Box”. If this
were on public lands, it would likely be a national park… but it is not
public. It is private. I recommend a multi-day vacation at
Corkin’s Lodge, as resorting here you will enjoy the beauty, accompanied with a
peace–of–mind that trespassing can never afford.
