ENCHANTED ROCK, TX – An estimated 3,000 people visited Enchanted Rock State Natural Area for the Great Texas Eclipse.
And unlike some areas of Texas that missed good views, even in the path of totality, this part of Central Texas had the clouds part just frequently enough to enjoy a full view of this historical event.
“It worked out wonderful. The cloud cover was supposed to be 80, 90-percent all day. It seemed to part just at the right time for everyone to see the totality,” said Doug Cochran, superintendent at the park. “It was a really great experience.”
The moment of darkness occurred at 1:31 PM and sunlight returned quickly after.
