El Paso?
 

Any good paddling? What's the Rio Grande like near there? I can do
whitewater or touring.

Thanks!

Dewatered. You could go upstream to northern New Mexico,
where there is some good whitewater followed by touring runs.
Or you could go downstream to Big Bend area, after the Rio Grande
(AKA Rio Bravo del Norte) has been joined by some rivers flowing
out of the Sonoran desert, and again has enough water to boat.

I enjoyed Santa Elena Canyon and Boquillas Canyon, and have
always wanted to boat Colorado Canyon and the Lower Canyons.

Thanks for the info. I was afraid of that!
