There are several active BMW groups in TX. The Lone Star group may have some info for you. Try googling them.

I'm sorry I don't know anything, but I am anxious to get down there too.

A friend and I spent a few days GS'ing Big Bend off road last month. Conditions were very good and we rode several great back roads including the local favorite, the River Road. Big Bend is a great place to ride off road and there are bacl roads you can take across the the park on the north or south side. Degrees of terrain difficulty vary so, depending on your off road riding skills, make sure conditions are good before you attempt the rougher roads. Rain can make some roads impassable. The road variation is from nicely maintained "all weather" dirt roads to unimproved jeep trails.

I'm sure others will chime in here as well but if you PM me your email address i'll send you a couple GPS files for some of the Big Bend back roads.
