AND NOW HE’S ROLLIN’ DOWN THE MOUNTAIN GOING FAST, FAST, FAST AND IF HE BLOWS IT THIS ONE’S GONNA BE HIS LAST RUN TO ACAPUCO TO TURN THE GOLDEN KEYS HENRY KEEP THE BRAKES ON FOR THIS CORNER IF YOU PLEASE! But what is the name of the mountain range? What is the jungle like? Rainforest or scrub? And why is it that almost nobody lives there? SW In a message dated 1/14/2017 11:10:46 A.M.

Went there in the sixties. Land Rovered up to some caves near there. Terrible road, steep and narly. Found some interesting caves in the jungle. Had a real thrill coming down with the brakes over heating. Made it back to Tamuin and Valles and mapped Arroyo and a cave across the road form the hot springs at Tamuin.

The peak (actually a valley) that piqued my interest is called El Picacho and is located at 23.397613, -98.563586 about 45 miles SE of Cuidad Victoria. The entire area is very green and undeveloped. Whoever lives in El Picacho probably doesn't get many visitors. Can any of y'all Texicans tell me anything about this mountain range? What is it called? Is it karst? (doesn't look like that to me) What can explain the strange cirque like valley? Is it certain death to go there?
