Yep, it is an oven sometimes. But believe it or not, the first time I went to Big Bend in 1979 was in August and we nearly froze our asses off. We nearly didn't go because we thought it was going to be hot so when we did decide to go, we brought hot weather clothes. Casa Grande was covered in fog most of the time and the wind was howling. The Chisos mountains rise up 6000 ft. from the Rio Grande so they can produce their own weather up there. The Chisos get twice as much precip as it does down below. I still wouldn't go again in summer. Winter is unbelievably perfect most of the time. |
