    Devil's River is the purest water in all the state of Texas. When I was there a ranger alerted me to the fact a cougar had recently made a kill near the river and trail. It had covered the remains over with debris. Another hiker had spotted the cover up. Had me on high alert as I was hiking. The water was absolutely perfect. Turquois in color. I captured many a good photos during my trip of the area. Camping was fantastic. The camp sites are like a mile apart, so no one bothers you. It was hard to go to sleep at night for the star gazing was out of this world!

    How on earth have I missed this place?! I grew up near Kerrville, and was a HUGE river rat. My buddies and I used to get my dad's maps (he was in the oil business), and find all the back dirt roads that led to interesting, beautiful and fun swimming spots that haven't been over run by tourists OR locals. We spent endless summer days road tripping to the Llano River up towards Mason (found a GREAT cliff diving spot!), or the Frio, or of course the Guadalupe... Any number of places, going a couple hundred miles or more.
    And yet, I don't recall, admittedly in my older age, the spot in THIS video!

    That is a beautiful river. I floated it about 40 years ago. We put in off of 163 and floated down to the lake. It took 5 days and 4 nights. Had to portage at Dolan Falls and one other, very narrow spot. The first day we had to drag our canoes through some shallow spots, but after that it was fine. We slept on the river bank, below the high water mark.

      My dads best friend used to float from Pandale to the High Bridge once a year in the 80’s. We would go camp at the High Bridge and I would take a small boat up the Pecos as far as I could go and waIt on him and tow him back because the river slowed down in that area. The water was really clear when you got up there a ways and I would have to navigate around huge boulders that were under water! FYI the High Bridge is on the Pecos River just before it hits the Rio Grande and Langtry is about 30-45 miles up the Rio Grande from the High Bridge. Done a week long camping trip in a cave just below Langtry and took hours by small boat to get there. Good Times!

      My brother in law was a government trapper and he had a trapline spanning from Langtry all the way to Sheffield and on to nearly Mason , 2000 traps at a run and bear as well as mountain lions and the occasional Leopard were taken. Beautiful country out west for sure

    This brings back memories I spent several summers in Eagle Pass and Del Rio back in the 80s and early 90s, back then you could access the river the parking along highway 163 and walk down there and swim, I'm sure by now all those areas are private property for the big game ranches.
