Alto Filo

five or six class III - IV right off. Good fun. No real suprises. Large rock gardens. Break for a while then another class IV. Chute with a hole on the left. Many waterfalls spilling in. Last scetion is class II. Put in is down a steep though good trail on the far side of the village. continue till the road take a sharp bend to the left along canyon rim. A thousand feet down. Takes about 25 minutes to walk. measured and timed. Dont take the road through pilares. go to altotonga and back. road is steep but good. we have run the whole stretch in 2:30 paddling hard through the flats. playing hard where available. I ran in this91. perhaps the first descent. good cause this is one of the best runs in Mexico. do it.Veracruz
