The Pecos River is as grand as the lore surrounding it, truly one of the last wild places in the state. A Pecos trip offers great bass fishing, challenging rapids, and spectacular rock art and archaeological history. All this comes at a price; Pecos River trips are hard both physically and logistically. The guides are there to make it a little easier, (the team won't paddle for you) by providing expert guidance and the camping experience you won't forget. go fish, or explore while the guides set up and cook a great meal. Trips are recommended from early fall through winter. Spring can be done but expect strong winds. Accommodations:
The Chihuahuan desert is a land of extremes. Temperatures in far west Texas soar into the hundreds in summer and dip below freezing in the winter. Consider these weather conditions when packing for your trip. Moisture-wicking or quick-dry materials are ideal for river trips. In cold weather months, packing many layers is the way to go, as guests can add or remove layers to remain comfortable. When it's hot outside, long sleeves are the best way to protect from UV rays, most sunscreens are harmful to the river. Zinc-based sunscreens are the best but nothing protects like clothing coverage. A wide-brimmed hat is one's best friend in the desert.
On all of Far West Texas Outfitter’s adventures they provide drinking water that can be dispensed from one of our igloo coolers we do not provide disposable bottles or cups. This means that it is imperative that all participants bring their own water bottles to drink from and refill. Insulated water bottles are ideal however any reusable vessel with a resealable lid is acceptable. Camel-baks are great for hiking trips but often are a hassle on river trips.
Having proper footwear on river trips is very important. As it is common to step in and out of the craft and into swift-moving water, Crocs, flip-flops, or slide sandals that can easily slip off are no good. Chacos, Tevas, or other strap-on sandals are great. Closed-toe water shoes such as Keens are great too and provide toe protection if desired. Plain old athletic shoes that can get wet and muddy are fine as well. If the water is cold, neoprene socks or wool socks are effective in keeping toes warm. On long multi-day trips, it is wise to bring a backup pair of shoes or sandals.
On multi-day river trips Far West Texas Outfitters can provide the camp gear (tent, sleeping bag, ground pad) if requested, however, they encourage guests to bring their own if they are more comfortable with their sleep system.
When booking a trip with Far West Texas Outfitters, a non-refundable deposit of 20% is held upon booking trips and is valid for 1 year should the trip be canceled. Cancellation of trips within 24 hrs of the trip date will forfeit this deposit.
