Started at Rio Bonito Cabin Resort and traveled to Camp Tejas. The trip was wonderful and beautiful. That was one of my best relaxing and fun kayak trips yet. Also Rio Bonito Cabin Resort provides nightly rates on some very beautiful cabins with full ammenities. I just have to say my trip was awesome and the North San Gabriel River from Rio Bonito Cabin Resort was a blast. - Denny
