About This Access Site
The FM 1053 Bridge access point provides boat ramp access to the Pecos River in Crane County near the Texas-New Mexico border region. This location offers a convenient put-in for kayakers, canoeists, and recreational boaters looking to explore this section of the Pecos River. The site includes a parking area and direct water access, making it suitable for launching small to medium-sized watercraft.

Water levels on the Pecos River can fluctuate seasonally and vary significantly depending on recent rainfall and upstream dam releases. Paddlers should check current conditions before planning their trip, as low water levels may affect launch feasibility or require portaging. This area is in remote West Texas, so plan accordingly with supplies and fuel, as services are limited in the immediate vicinity. Consider contacting local ranger stations or checking recent trip reports for current access conditions and water levels.
