Desert Sports was founded in the late 1980?s by Mark Mills and operated out of Lajitas. After a few changes in hands and location moves, Desert Sports was incorporated in 1996 by Jim Carrico, former superintendent of Big Bend National Park and Mike Long, long-time river guide and mountain bike enthusiast. We are still going strong after bouts of drought, economic recessions and border closures.

Desert Sports is Big Bend’s smallest outfitter, and we’ve worked hard to stay that way. We specialize in guided backcountry trips with a more personal touch and pay attention to the details; you’ll never feel lost in a crowd. Desert Sports has a small but dedicated staff who are passionate about the Big Bend area in Texas. Our trip leaders are all Big Bend veterans, career guides with a special interest in exploring and sharing our corner of the Chihuahuan Desert.
