In this latest entry, the search continues as Dan and I finally make it onto the immense Continental Ranch. We needed to scout put-in and take-out locations on the ranch for our planned canoe trip in search of our kayaks, but things don't always go as planned...to read about our arrival to the Continental, click here: Pecos River Journal - The Continental

Thanks, everyone.
The next segment isn't too far away, jboy...and I think it'll be worth the wait. Just when you think things couldn't get any stranger down their, they do. Let's just say the lower Pecos is as harsh as it is beautiful.

The power of mother nature is nothing less than astounding. Great read and your writing ability does the story justice. Even seemingly simple sentences such as this create excitement. "and it occurred to me that after nearly sixty days, I was once again going back to the Pecos." Well done and looking for more...........hurry up!
