history -
Caprock Canyons is home to a large population of North American bison. The herd was donated to the state park by Charles Goodnight in 1997 and is the last remaining herd that is genetic-related Southern bison. This means part of their genetics is not shared by any other bison in North America.






Sandstone and gypsum create the vibrant colors that illuminate orange at sunrise and red at sunset.
