This is a great area to explore. Very different area of Texas. The mountains are very nice and the weather is usually great. I went for Astrophotography. I travel the state doing mostly nightscape. It is an excellent dark sky area. Very clear and dark sky most of the time. The observatory for now, only takes online registration. If you just go there without a ticket, you will not get in. You have to book early. I didn't find a spot so I did my own thing. Taking the surrounding area. Hwy 118 is a great dark sky area. Very open and DARK. You can stay at Ft. Davis State Park or Prude Ranch is a good option if the park is full. Highly recommend the area.
