Wild Palo Duro Canyon Engagement

adventuring in palo duro

I love to think out of the box for engagement shoots, and for those who love hiking, Texas offers an array of beautiful options.  A favorite for me and this couple is Palo Duro.  For a Texas engagement at Palo Duro Canyon State Park there are a few details you need to be aware of from weather alerts to trail tracking that I love guiding clients through.

Palo duro canyon weather

That is right, even in Texas where the sun loves to shine, you have to watch the forecast especially in the canyon.  There is a meter as you come in that lets you know what the UV rays are up to because they can be a force to be reckoned with.  Even though it was winter, I was out hiking so much that my 50 spf from the morning didn’t last and I had a very adorable burn on my face haha. Please read with all sarcasm intended.
