There is a tall and tight razor wire fence across the river at the Jacobs Fishing Camp 3 miles upstream from Terrero. In spring 2004 a friend and I kayaked from Cowles to Santa Rosa Dam. This was the only section of this spectacular 135-mile run closed. After a streamside confrontation with the caretaker he agreed to drive us around the disputed section. I hear law enforcement is backing the landowner. Is the Pecos a navigable river? How can we get this re-opened?
