It receives approximately 14 inches of rain per year with wonderful blue skies and fabulous sunsets. The rainy season (and often the hotter part of the year) is May through July. The temperature rarely gets lower than the teens and rarely higher than the mid-90s with low humidity unlike our Texas neighbors to the east and it starts to cool off in August. The area is blessed with 21 of the 23 highest mountain peaks east of the Rockies along with some magnificent scenery. Alpine is the central community of the Big Bend with Fort Davis to the north, Marfa to the west, Presidio to the southwest, Marathon to the east and Terlingua and the Big Bend National Park to the south. We are also home to Sul Ross State University and some of the friendliest folks in the country. ~CITY of ALPINE FILMING PERMIT REQUIREMENTS~ Please see the link below for the modest permit requirements for the City of Alpine.
