The Devil’s River - An Unexpected Gem in Texas

Season 1 Episode 103

In southwest Texas, far from cities and people, lies a pristine river: clear spring-fed turquoise water tumbles past rugged ridges and scenic canyons. It’s not easy to get there, but it’s worth the effort to experience this unique combination of snorkel-worthy pools and swift rapids set in a desert environment. The Devil’s River is one of the most pristine and Wild Rivers of the west.
