Texas whitewater - Lampasas River, Lampasas County Lampasas county, FM 1690 to Rumley section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.   CLASS II+     5 miles   I just floated a 25 mile stretch of the Lampasas river from the hwy190 bridge in kemper to the 195 bridge near florence.  It was a very scenic trip but the water levels at this time of year is a little low.  All in all it was a good float, but the water could have been a little higher.  not too much white water and a lot of downed trees blocking the path.  Good easy float. but like i said, it needs more water to be a better ride.
