I know they have had a little, I have been watching that very closely. According to USGS Real-Time Water Data for USGS 08195000 Frio Rv at Concan, TX CFS has gone up from 17 (2 days ago) to 24 today...so that is some improvement.

I will check out the other links provided....

Thanks a lot!!

I, too hope for the best cuz DS an I plan on tubing while at Garner late next month. :P

honeask & rockhill.. thanks for thinking of me when it comes to the Frio! We try our best in providing as much information as possible for the area and giving any suggestions.

Kellye- I apologize for not seeing this post earlier to give our input.. I wish I had seen this before you came down

we didn't get much out of Dolly nor the latest batch unfortunately.. so the water hasn't risen any. For anybody considering coming down, we would suggest finding a nice spot to lounge- that's what a lot of people are doing now and really enjoying themselves. There are some beautiful spots to relax, swim and take in the Hill Country.. can be just as fun as tubing in my opinion..

If you are coming down soon or anytime- feel free to PM me with any questions. We would be happy to help ... You can also contact us through our site: Welcome to funrivers.com - Your Link to the Frio River Canyon

We have also been been actively updating our blog here: funrivers.com

Take Care,

srds...

Hope you have a good trip! We try to do flyers everyday so look out for us if you are at one of the crossings....

Where are you staying?

We had a great trip,and a little rain helped the frio but a lot more is needed.We had a good group of 16 and more with all the kids,alot of walking in spots and a few **** bruises but it was fun.Did'nt meet Altrima I guess they changed there trip.Only real panic came when taking Dd's tent down and found a snake,we scared each other real good,I guess he did'nt like the rain.He made a fast retreat to water and I made it to top of rock.New pup was great,so glad we got it.Frio was clouding up when we were leaving and they said they had more rain on the way,was'nt slowing anyone down at the park.Hope we can get a trip in November otherwise we will back next summer.Now the fun part unloading in the rain at home,must have rained a bunch while we were gone rain gauge is full at 8 inches.

Glad to hear you had a good trip.. Where did ya'll stay? We did get some rain last weekend and Monday which helped the Frio a little while making it murky.

But we still haven't gotten the "Big Rain" everybody is wanting.. oh well.. Mother Nature will come when she comes.. As I have always said, regardless of the Frio Water Levels, there are always good spots to go and just being here is enough for a lot of people.

Not sure where and when you are staying in November (If you can make it down) but if you ck out our most recent blog post... one of the lodging parks is having one heck of a deal..

Take Care,
