“To My Compadres and Me”
Steven Fromholz’ Birthday Celebration
Rio Chama, New Mexico
July 18-20, 2008
Cost: $610 plus tax
In the Fall 1984, river outfitter Far-Flung Adventures launched its “Texas River Music” series with Austin’s wittiest singer-songwriter, Steven Fromholz. It was the time of the “Great Progressive Country Music Scare” of which Fromholz, with his pal Willie Nelson, was a key proponent. Over the years, Fromholz became a legendary river guide, hosting numerous late night pickin’ and grinnin’ sessions on the banks of the Rio Grande, Rio Antigua and other great rivers, before suffering a serious health scare.
Now on the road to recovery, Steven returns to the oars. Join Fromholz and friends for the umpteenth River Music renewal on New Mexico’s Rio Chama. Booming baritones on sandstone canyons nestled in bosque campsites highlight a fun-filled, two night, raft-based campout that also features visits to dinosaur footprints and archaeological sites, Feast on the Flood cuisine and Class 2-3 whitewater. Join the fun by calling Far-Flung Adventures at 800-359-2627
