KAYAK CAMPING Texas – the Frio River is PARADISE
Have You Seen My Best KAYAK CAMPING and Adventure Videos?
Our crew set out on an incredible adventure to the Frio River in Concan, Texas. Flow rates were extremely high from Fall rains which made for some really fun rapids. It sure got cold though!
This is one of those bucket list rivers if you’re looking to do some kayak camping! Overnight kayak trip to a beautiful river!

Amazing videos keep em coming!
Great video just like all your others. Couple of questions. Would this trip be okay for a 14ft sit in top? And as far as just pulling over and camping, is it public land or have y’all ever been run off? And last where would you recommend putting in for the deeper water? Thanks in advance for your reply and keep up the amazing videos
dope vid
Another fantastic video.
You have such a talent to make the viewer feel like we are along for the ride.
I wish you could make more videos maybe even film.
Hello Netflix are you watching.
I’ll be waiting for more content.
Be safe brother
I’m so impressed, I’m a full on whitewater kayaker and I have a whitewater boat and all the gear, been on class III rapids and I’m so impressed in how you handled in these boats. Huge inspiration, I started the same way, in a flatwater kayak on the river, laughing and just spending time with friends. Really impressed, keep sending!
Hi from Europe. Great vid, great river, great trip. Amazing content. Love it.
Really well done video, editing, everything!
Somebody really needs to give you your own T.V. show Gatewood!
#Cable #Tv #Worthy
Helmets man!!! Please be safe when doing falls
You are on another level with Your videos. Your videos inspire & are the "standard" when it comes to Anything having to do with outdoor adventure. It’s a humbling experience, to witness your attention to detail in every frame. Your passion behind the camera translates into some of the most beautiful videos I’ve ever seen from a Youtuber. Keep up the great work!! I’m just starting out myself, please feel free to check out my kayaking channel. God bless!
Super ride. I enjoy kayaking as well. Greetings from Transylvania!
Wow! Excellent video and great adventures! From the great state of Texas here, I’m not too wildly far from the Frio, so I might just make it out there sooner than later thanks to you. Keep up the good work! You’ve earned a subscriber.
you Texas boys need underquilts
I being to Frío a few times, I have never seen that spring 😩 looking forward to go this summer too ❤️ great video!!!
How do you keep your bedding and other clothes dry!
We just bought a home on the Guadalupe River. Anxious(: thanks for the great videos(:
Love the artistry of your film. This is a neighboring town to my family’s hometown and I greatly appreciate how much you appreciate what a treasure it is.
Ugh I love Trampled By Turtles. This video was great
Wow!
Looks like a lot of fun!! Awesome people, place, and video! New subscriber From New Orleans❤
Love this river content. Texas Rivers are amazing. Def subbing.
Great!!
I go to the frio River every year and have never seen the water that clear I allways go stay and bass fish and hang out
Awesome vid man. Any chance that is Zach Nytomt? Him and I were in the same fraternity in college. Crazy to see him.
Great video this looks so much fun.. I live in round rock and I’ve never kayak in my life. I need to try this👍 Subbed
How far do you guys paddle and how you go back where did you start at ?
I have had a chance over the last few days to watching some of your videos. Awesome! I like the Wal-Mart boat in this video. Nice job. Great stuff. I will continue to watch your videos and catch up. Great stuff. ✌️
12:50 mark, the water sparkled like jewels. Having never been to Texas I am amazed at the beauty. WOW
It looks rough af lol can we get the exact coordinates to the clear smooth part lol! Where can I find people to do this with lol
Excellent video. You have a great channel. Subscribed.✌️
How do you get back to your car?
Can you (or someone) explain the camping situation for me? I’ve camped at Garner a ton, and I’ve always wanted to see what was further down the river, but never decided to go beyond the fencing area. Are you able to camp wherever whenever further down the river?
This is so inspiring, man. Easiest sub I’ve ever made!
Outstanding video, amigo. The yellow paddle diving into the crystal clear water at the beginning of the video was an attention-getter. I was committed to staying tuned till the end. I’ve yakked the coast and local rivers and lakes, but haven’t done the Frio. I’m inspired. Thanks for sharing your amazing work.
I have been dead set on a paddle board but you sir make me want to get a yak….great job on the vid!!!!
You are killer on the fiddle man👍🏼
That Magers campground. I believe. They live across from Garner right past the park on the left. The Frio is Heaven on Earth. Best place in the world. I sure miss going. Thank you for the video. I’ve never kayaked in it only floated in tubes. That’s the best way. Also from Seven Bluff.lol you just said Magers crossing. I knew y’all were close. They are very dear friends of mine . My grandparents ran the campground at the seven bluff campground. It’s closed now. It’s on the right before the road.
Do you have locations available the start and end of this trip?
Is this the fiddle player for shane smith? 😅
Hey GB, I’ve contacted some outfitters for this river to do this. I’ve had it planned for awhile now and am supposed to be leaving in the morning. BUT the outfitters are saying its illegal to camp on the river here bc its all owned land. I’ve looked at the laws but don’t want to run into any problems. Any locations you suggest camping?
Hey Gatewood, did you use a GoPro Hero 7 for all the footage in this or did you use any DSLR? Some of the shots look incredible. Thanks!
Next year…🦋🦋😍😍
So I’m guessing inflatable kayaks wouldn’t be a good idea?
The undertow at the little waterfall can be gnarly! Definitely thought he was going under!!!
I love seeing your smiles. Such a happy video
I have adventure envy lol my friends don’t wanna do SHIT lol
Love your videos!! Your trips just look like so much fun! Keep up the great work. Subscribed!
Can’t believe that used a sun dolphin kayak for this
Where did you guys put in at?
absolutely pretty place for camping!
