Terlingua is more of a small community than it is a town. Their Web Site really pumps it up and makes it look like really something when it really isn’t. It is more of just a small Mexican type village located in extreme south Texas adjacent to the Rio Grande River, border of Mexico. It also has the distinct feature that it is located near the unique Big National Park. It is only about 3-4 miles to the west entrance to the park. Terlingua is a special place, because of its deserts, its mountains, its views. Highway 170 to Presidio along the Rio Grande a drive of about 70-miles through mountain country is very scenic.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.

A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.

If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
