CLASS III-IV     23 miles
  The Agua Fria Road to FM 170 section of Terlingua Creek in Brewster County is 23 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class III-IV section of whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Texas is often easier than elsewhere, so you'd better keep in mind that a large number of rivers in this state are quite easy. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both,
    doesn't matter, this area has a pretty small number of paddling rivers. The scenic beauty of Texas and the water flowing gracefully down Terlingua Creek have people coming here. You can enjoy this stretch more if you take your time, so why not pack your sleeping bag too. There
are a few other stretches in this river system that can be paddled as well. Getting some good exercise and just hanging out with mother nature have a lot of people coming here.
