I’m an old man born in Uvalde right down the road. I look at the film of y’all in low dirty water. The Frio never used to look like that. It was always running faster, crystal clear and several feet deeper. It was a lot safer too. Not nearly as many money grabbers commercializing the hell out of a once pristine river. I am blessed to remember the swing at Neal’s almost 50 years ago, and the 2 diving boards. Tubing from 1st crossing to Neal’s in 2 hours and Never having to walk a single foot. Progress is what “they”call it. It brings tears to my old eyes to see it now. My warning to everybody is to keep your face out of the water and don’t get it in your mouth’s.

Sad that it's been low in recent times based on what you've seen. We still think this is incredibly clean compared to some of the other rivers in Texas (see: kzitem.info/news/bejne/r2Z7rJqHsaiTq6Asi=3AEGOjKZFk4IVzha ). And there are still areas along it that are much deeper than here. But definitely low on this particular weekend. Thanks for watching and chiming in! I love getting local insight to the areas we've been. Happy trails!

We liked it there so much that we went back this past weekend. This time we were walking distance to the rope swing. It was a lot of fun!

So when you go down the river for a hour or so how do you get back to where you started? Is there like a van to bring you back if you go a long distance?

There's private companies that bus that can have tube rentals and can take you back. We just supplied our own tubes and didn't go so far that we couldn't just walk back in like 15-20 minutes or so. The area we were at also had a trail and parking areas so that we could walk back along the creek

Tell Jessica her weak ass fire wouldn't even deter mosquito's! Once all the virus craziness settles down we need a real camping trip: Essentials....500 beers per person, chainsaws (yes plural), Farmer John's sausage. Optional: Nice DJ speakers, tents, sleep

I haven’t seen anything too much deeper than this but that might have changed with the rain they’ve had.
