Found - Kayak Seat, Cadron Creek
Found a kayak seat a short distance above the Hwy 285 take-out on Cadron Creek. Type - from a recreational or fishing type sit-on-top. Pretty muddy but appears undamaged. Someone else has already called "dibs", but if it was yours, contact us with a good story including a few good details,...

Re: Intro and Opinions Requested...
Planning that far in advance, I'd suggest having a "primary" plan, and a secondary plan. For example, a trip on the lower river (which will almost certainly have enough water), but with an option to switch to the middle or upper river if water is more favorable. There are beautiful bluffs ...

Re: Rush to Shipps Landing. July 2019.
I've been hanging out more on the ACC Facebook page, so I'm just now seeing this. But thanks for a good trip report! I just visited the last 7 miles of this run earlier this week by going upstream from Buffalo City. You're right about the potential for strainers on this section! While not likely to ...

Re: The Saline River Needs Your help
OK, someone requested a draft letter that folks could use to make a comment to the Court more quickly. I've put something together, and will attach it to one of the next comments. In the draft letter, I include some comments about the graph of river levels. I don't want anyone to say it just because...

Help Us Keep River Accesses Open!
Over the last several decades, many river access points in Arkansas have been closed by local land owners. Why? If you talk to the landowners, the Number One reason they have closed or are considering closing accesses is "Litter and Illegal Dumping". We also hear complaints about "ill...

Lost - Hiking Boots, Richland Creek Campground
This was posted on Facebook on 3/17/2019: Brian Matthew to My Buffalo River 4 hrs · I know it’s a long shot but I left a pair of Green Salwea hiking boots at the Richland Camp ground. Left them by the primitive bathrooms on a picnic table. If anybody found these, I'm sure Brian would be super appre...

Found 3-15-2019, Cadron Creek - Paddle and dry bag (ADD: and Kayak)
Found a kayak paddle and a dry bag today on the creek, above Hwy 65. A good description is all that is needed to get your stuff back. Nah, I lied. You'll need a good description, AND you'll have to tell me a war story. EDIT TO ADD: On 3/18/2019, found a kayak. I know it was there on 3/17 because Phi...

Re: McKissic Creek Centerton
My understanding of the McIlroy decision is that it changes what MAY be declared navigable, but also clearly says rulings must be made on a case-by-case basis, by a court. I try to bypass a lot of what that implies by making friends with the landowners, letting them know I'm PICKING UP litter, not l...

David C. Jones is reporting that he found a men's wedding band or ring, and will return it to the rightful owner who should be able to describe it in more detail. I don't have a phone number for him, but you can find him on Facebook, on the "Our Buffalo River" group page. Although it was j...

Re: Safety Tubing Remmel Dam?
Please take a gander at the pinned post, "Arkansas Laws - What every paddler needs to know". Some of it has already been covered, but not all of it. On safety, yes, high flows can create problems, but on this stretch you have to work at it to get yourself into trouble. Near the start, ther...

Re: Accident on Spring
I'm guessing we will never know exactly what happened. Since this was posted I've seen several reports, each with minor variations. But this drone footage shows what they were up against pretty well. Basically, a short underwater cave developed that was draining the area between two ledges. I've hea...
