Rafting in the Huasteca.

April 24th, 2009 by Aaron

We have been having some busy days here in Mexico. Semana Santa always brings a lot of clients for rafting. The Tampaon still has quite a bit of water. The levels make for some great rafting action.

This is how we scout form the raft!

The river is an amazing turquoise color. It is like a slice of the caribbean here in the mountains. It makes for a beautiful day on the river. This section is the fifth canyon of the Santa Maria.

Russian Roulette is still over the middle gate rock, but there is always some downtime in this rapid. Two converging currents and a 6 foot drop make life interesting. This rapid is only here during medium to low water.

This is Amilkar showing the custies how Licuadora works. This guy is good at his job!

I’ll leave you with a nice shot of the canyon. The tampaon is a section of the Santa Maria. It begins at the confluence of the Gallinas and Santa Maria. This confluence is the 350 foot Tamul falls. Which you see below.

Thanks for checking out the site.
