Hi Adam,

I have a couple of questions...

What time of year do you plan to do this trip and why do you think
you would like paddling the Rio Grande?  Just trying to get a sense
of what you are looking for and expect to find. :-)  Also, I'm forwarding
your question to a list of Texas paddlers with several who have a lot
of experience paddling the Rio.

Cheers,

Jackie
