Claret cup cactus, Guadalupe Mountains National Park, Texas, USA
Cactus flowers and historic landmarks await visitors at Guadalupe Mountains National Park in Texas. Here you’ll find the four largest peaks in the US state, as well as towering El Capitan, a dramatic looking peak that was used as a landmark by stagecoach drivers delivering passengers and mail. You can view the ruins of the stage line and visit Frijole Ranch – once a centre of ranching in this mountain range. Ancient rock art and pottery indicates people lived here as early as 10,000 years ago.
