About this event

Time to get back to the Brazos! The stretch from SH 159 to FM 529 is a nice flat-water run with much historic significance. There are no known hazards on this stretch except on little rocky are near Bernardo Plantation, where Sam Houston's Texian Army crossed the Brazos during the Runaway Scrape.

The distance for this run is roughly 19.86 miles. The put in and take out are moderately difficult, but manageable. There will be mud!

Meet up will be at 0800 at FM 529 and the river, on the east bank (river left). From there we will shuttle up to SH 159 to put in.
