My life-long best friend Jay Root and I needed a weekend away from civilization. Only a four-hour drive from Boerne, Texas, we found the perfect spot.
Actually, this was my second time to dare the Devil's River. I did the same thing last year with another good friend, Greg Chandler. Now that I think about it, this is not a trip to undertake alone, nor with anyone but a trusted and good friend. Nor is it a trip for the leisure seeker. It's hard work... two full days of it. Especially hard with a southern wind making every stroke of the paddle that much more difficult.
I'd take the time to write more about our trip, but Jay does an awesome job in his article, found here. For more photos of the trip, check out the gallery.

Greetings,
I enjoyed your pics and article on the Devil's River. I have been going there for twenty years, since I was 5 or 6. I was curious, who you used to transport/haul you guys on your trips? We now own a house and 20 acres on the Devils, while my parents own multiple locations and a house.
I would also like to comment on the overall appearance of the website. The photography is amazing and the designs are remarkable. The mission of your company seems admirable, and the interests you represent seem to all be noteworthy.
I would also like to direct you to a project I was involved with. The American Diversity Project's West Texas Workshop took place in Sonora, Texas. I was one of the organizers and principle fundraiser. The web address is adpworkshop.org, the next project will take place soon in Mississippi River Delta.
I would love to hear your thoughts/comments.
Thank You
Zac Kerbow
Wow, the Diversity Project website is absolutely amazing. I could spend hours on that site... time which is hard to come by, unfortunately. What a cool project, though, and I can't thank you enough for sharing. Thanks, too, for the kind words about the sites and company. It's great to hear that.
By the way, we used the services of Gerald Bailey both times I ran the Devils. Heck, I'm not even aware of an alternative.
Cheers, Zac.
This is a natural area with no picnic tables, concessions, or other amenities found in traditional state parks.
Good work! Your post/article is an excellent example of why I keep comming back to read your excellent quality content that is forever updated. Thank you!
