Description

At the right levels (beta from paddlers indicates that 4000 cfs is probably ideal), this stretch of the San Gabe offers some great playboating opportunities-- particularly in the last 5.75 miles (below the Berry Creek confluence.) For more information, see Texas Whitewater. NOTE: Many whitewater boaters choose to put in on Berry Creek at the FM 971 bridge, since the best rapids are below the confluence. This makes the total run 6.25 miles instead of 10. Distances and gradient measured using GIS tools in 2015.
