Cool Places for Hot Days: The River is UP!

Many visitors to the Big Bend say their river trip was an absolute highlight of their time in Far West Texas.  Mexico released water in to the Rio Grande so now's a GREAT time to take a river trip!  Visit Big Bend has a river trips page, listing Far Flung Outdoor Center, Desert Sports, and Big Bend River Tours as qualified outfitters.

Here's a link to Big Bend National Park's Backcountry River Use page, for your information, as well as their Floating the Rio Grande page, and their river use regulations page.
