Los Ebanos Ferry Crossing

Named after the abundance of ebony trees that flourish around the site, the ferry is the last hand-pulled ferry in existence within the U.S. It can

transport three cars and several pedestrians across the Rio Grande.

 

You can even help them pull!

 

You can watch the "action" here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGnIh_fbOBY
