Hueco Tanks — Texas
Hueco Tanks is a stark, high-altitude desert basin in West Texas, just east of El Paso. These massive granite boulders and low domes dominate the terrain and are clustered together like a natural fortress emerging from the Chihuahuan Desert. The rock is deeply pocked in places, shaped by many years of weathering. At sunset, the landscape glows warm and golden under the Texas sun.
The site takes its name from huecos, meaning natural hollows and basins worn into the granite that collect rainwater. These pockets are scattered across the rock faces and ledges, creating rare sources of water in an otherwise arid environment.
Indigenous peoples took refuge here for thousands of years, leaving behind incredible pictographs painted beneath rock overhangs and inside sheltered alcoves. Animals, symbols, and human forms still mark the stone.
