Picture A Day March 12, 2010 - Danger Deep Water on the Frio River
A faded warning sign along the banks of the Frio River, immediately downstream of Garner State Park, cautions 'Danger Deep Water'. Just a few hundred feet upstream, the river is wide and shallow, passing over rough gravel, where you'll only end up getting your ankles wet. But then the river takes a turn to the right as it carves deeply into the side of Old Baldy, which rises a few hundred feet above the riverbed. At the bend, the relentless erosion of the water cuts a deep channel.
