“In this time when travel dollars truly count, the mountains of Texas have not gone away and the stars still come out to play every night. It’s the TMT that presents this message loud and clear every day.”
— Larry Francell, Jeff Davis County Commissioner
“Texas Mountain Trail organization helped launch our newly restored historic Hotel El Capitan in this tough economic climate.
“They developed a bike ride and press event beginning at our property and coordinated several journalists’ visits, all producing attention for our new business. This press coverage had an immediate payoff in booking for our hotel and will encourage bookings in years to come.
“We are proud to participate in their cycle-friendly accommodations program as we believe it will all lead to increased business for our property. While Texas Mountain Trail is based in Van Horn, they work in all communities and contribute to the strength of the tourism industry across Far West Texas.”
