During this drive on two-lane SR 54, Guadalupe Peak rises like a giant amethyst ship from the dusty sea of the prairie on this northern section of the Texas Mountain Trail. Take photos at sunset to capture the rich hues of the sun playing off the mountain’s rocky outcroppings. Listen to the wind rush across the land while soft swirls of dust dance over scrub-dotted plains.
