The Pecos is a spring-fed, clear water river in the classic pool and drop pattern with a continuous series of small rapids in the 60 mile course from Pandale Crossing to Lake Amistad. A couple of the rapids will require scouting and/or portaging or lining. The hiking can be very good on the Pecos if you are willing to bushwack a little. Many side canyons are very interesting and the number of archeological sites in the area is enormous. Fishing for bass and catfish on the Pecos is excellent.
