Current River Conditions in Texas
Dam Release Rates and Current Flow Rates
The speed of Texas rivers is controlled by many different factors, including recent rainfall, water releases from upriver dams, and flows from springs.
These factors can change, and different flows make for different kinds of trips. A high flow may be too fast for floating, but perfect for rafting trips.
Check the flow before you arrive, and call a local outfitter to confirm.
