Falcon International Reservoir

TIME : 2016/2/18 12:32:23

This 136-sq-mile lake was formed by the Falcon Dam (1953) on the Rio Grande. The 500-acre Falcon State Park , 3 miles west of US 83 off FM 2098, lines the US side of the lake, which is popular for fishing. The land is mostly covered by cactus and shrubs – no trees – so the park has shaded shelters and picnic areas.
