Hello. I was looking for some beta on traveling to Chile this Jan/Feb. Does anyone know or have any experience with RegionX rivers? I met the folks not to long ago in NM and they seem like a good, more personalized and smaller operation. Is there a guide book available for Chile? What are water levels @ that time? Best time and avenue to pursue flights/transport? Any help appreciated.

My husband and I are friends with Sven and Sarah and have been to Chile three times in the past couple years to paddle. We are trying to head down this winter around the time you stated. We have stayed with them at their campo and it is amazing. The food, cabins, and river guiding are all excellent. Please feel free to give us a call or e-mail for more info killerkekel@bresnan.netel@bresnan.netkillerkel@bresnan.net

the best people down there with the beta on the most river are in pucon chile. it is rodrigo at Kayak Pucon. he runs a small shop but has the most useful beta. and is one of the nicest locals you will ever meet. heis website is Kayak Pucon he runs a full service shop and can really help you out if you are going to be down the that long.
Its a first class kind of place, not the type if you are looking
to paddle around Chile or the Futaleufu on your own. Then I
would recommend the Cara del Indio Camp:
visit our website to see various pictures and video of rivers in Chile. www.riversofchile.com is also a very usefull guide although not complete it is constantly being updated during the season and is a great reasorce for info on rivers in Chile.
We offer full week or more packages from most Chillian airports or more basic day trips out of our shop in pucon.
I hope you have a good time in Chile what ever you end up doing and dont hesitate to drop by our shop or email if there is any info or equiptment you need.
We are the only white water kayak shop that sells new equiptment so if something breaks, is lost or you forget it we can send things to any city in pucon.
I hope you have a great trip and enjoy Chile as much as we do.
