The vast expanse of the state contains great regional differences (the distance from Beaumont to El Paso is greater than that from New York to Chicago). East Texas : the land between the Sabine and Trinity rivers : is Southern in character, with pine-covered hills, cypress swamps, and remnants of the great cotton plantatithe Civil War. Cotton farming has been supplemented by diversified agriculture, including rice cultivation; almost all of the state's huge rice crop comes from East Texas, and even the industrial cities of Beaumont and Port Arthur are surrounded by rice fields. The inland pines still supply a lumbering industry; Huntsville Lufkin , and Nacogdoches are important lumber towns. The real wealth of East Texas, however, comes from its immense, rich oil fields. Longview is an oil center, and

45. Big Bend, The Biggest Nat'l Park In Texas
    A MetaLab informational page on Big Bend National Park.  
    http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/academic/geography/onward/big-bend.html
    
    Extractions: A trip report of a weekend in Big Bend Nat'l Park. Sept. 3, 1994 For those of you who have never been in south Texas, even at the end of August it is quite warm. 100 degrees during the daytime is normal and the evenings don't cool off much early. At midnight it is pleasantly warm at 85 degrees. Out here in the desert I had to expect the temperatures to be more extreme, hotter during daytime reaching 105 and colder at night. The desert is big and contains many surprises. Interesting geological formations can be found all over the place. Volcanic rocks are forming the surface in many places. Lifting has exposed old rock formations and presents the layers to be seen from tens of miles away. Dinosaur bones have been found that are 60 to 80 million years old. Some old graves are just off the street, the most famous one is from a woman who died in her 30ies in 1910. Despite it is dry and hot and I sweat strongly it is astonishingly easy to find water or the marks of water in this huge desert. There are tons of dry washes and empty creeks that tell me that during the rain rich months flash floods are likely and that there must be enough water to carve canyons and creeks into the rock. Near the grave of that lady I found a few pools of water and in a dry creek digging just a couple of inches revealed moist dirt. Another trip lead me to a dry canyon, called something like Lost Burro. After a few miles the trail suddenly sort of disappears. Wild cacti and other plants with thorns gave me a hard time and punctured my skin in a few places. So with a little bit of blood on my knee and ankles, without a trail, not having seen anyone for a while (the whole Nat'l Park had no more than 30 visitors and half of those were staying in the air conditioned motel-like cabins in the higher elevations of the Chisos Mountains) it finally felt like it should feel in Nat'l Park. In the area I found a dry creek with some tiny pools of standing water. Following the creek bed upstreams I found a dry waterfall. It was easy to climb and only 15 ft high, cut into solid rock. Further up I found another dry waterfall; since it was higher I had to walk around it to the top were the water had carved a jacuzzi sized tub that was filled with dirty water and seemed like a life spender to all sorts of insects.

Peru is considered a tropical country. It has three major regions, a narrow coastal belt, the wide Andean mountains, and the Amazon rainforest. The coastal strip is mostly desert; however the major cities are found in that area which are connected by the Pan-American highway. The rivers running down the steep slopes of the Andes, generate narrow oases (valleys) where most of the agriculture centres seat. Distinctive and exotic plants and animals inhabit these three different regions. From llamas, alpacas, vicunas and condors to piranhas and toucans; Peru is a naturalist's paradise. The Andes rise rapidly from the coastland. Just 100 km inland the Andes reach 6000 meters (19,688 feet.) The Huascaran is the highest mountain with 6768 meters (22,208 feet.) Most of Peru's Andes lie between 3,000 and 4,000 meters, separated by vertiginous canyons.

    Extractions: Abbreviation: TX Die Bezeichnung Texas ist ein spanischer Name, der sich von einem indianischen Wort für "Freunde" oder "Verbündete" ableitet. 1836 erlangte die Republik Texas seine Unabhängigkeit von Mexiko. Im selben Jahr kam es zur bekannten Belagerung der Alamo, in deren Verlauf die Pioniere Jim Bowie und Davy Crockett starben. Es wurde 1845 der 28. Bundesstaat. Texas Die „Frontier Cowboys" mit ihren 10-Gallonen-Hüten waren lange ein Symbol für Texas. Es gibt immer noch Cowboys, die durch die weiten Ebenen reiten und riesige Viehherden vor sich her treiben. Und Cowboyhüte und -stiefel gehören immer noch zur Alltagskleidung vieler Texaner auf dem Land. Dennoch kann ein Texaner heute ebenso wahrscheinlich ein Arbeiter auf einem Ölfeld oder ein Wissenschaftler in einem Labor sein wie ein Cowboy. Einige der beliebtesten Urlaubsorte von Texas liegen an der Golfküste. Sandstrände ziehen sich entlang der Küste, die ideal ist zum Schwimmen, Bootfahren und Tiefseeangeln.
