The frio is being damaged more every year! Where should we start people build houses and house needing more water for the house. Don't forget the trash people leave and people going to the bathroom in the river. I pray people don't start going there and causing the same damage!

[@adventure_48]

I'll have to disagree. Texas rivers are beautiful and most people take care of things properly. Considering places like New Braunfels, its only like that due to close college towns and young people who don't care quite as much. That crowd will likely not drive that far to visit a secluded and beautiful place like this.
