Here's a link to Hal's obit (with info about the visitation and service).

George is right. The RBF campsite at the divine equivalent of Turner Bend is filling up fast. Too fast. RIP Hal - one of the good guys.

Our hearts are breaking Whence goeth the RBF? R.I.P. Kenny Peerson (1957-2015) The Poonanny Run will never be the same. UPDATE: The "service" will be 1:00 p.m. Saturday at Edwards Funeral Home, 201 N 12th St, Fort Smith. There will be a visitation afterward. As Jungle Boater mentions below...

Who are you and what have you done with my friend Terry?

Reasons rafts beats kayaks or open canoes:

. If Cap'n Downstream says, "It's a step up," RUN, do not walk, away as fast as you can. NEVER follow Cowper's line. If you're at Moore Bridge getting ready to put in and "canoe" tells you you're crazy then leaves to go paddle Hurricane, he's right. If you're in a paddle boat wit...

Prairie Tater a/k/a Terry Prater ought to be all over this. I think he writes his contact information on the black blade with a silver sharpie and then puts a couple of coats of clear lacquer over that. Whatever he does, it works. Terry?

That just brought a tear to the RBF's eye.

Speaking of the RBF, I have good news and bad news. The good news is that Kenny has 2 new hips! The bad news is that one of them is dislocated.

I just loaded the Apps on my iPhone and iPad. Congratulations, Arkansas Canoe Club message board users. ARG has found new ways to annoy you (and you have Sig to thank).

According the Internet gauge, the water on the Cossatot only fluctuated .2" yesterday (5-31), from 4.1 to 4.3. We thought the difference was much greater, and that the flow when we went through the Falls section was more like 4.5". It was rising while we ate lunch at Dead Dog Beach, kept w...

I stopped by St. Vincent on the way home from work yesterday only to discover that Tom was ... gone. He was not in his room. Then I looked out the window (I swear I'm not making this up): http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-md7XUHxCG8s/U0gBJ8hzciI/AAAAAAAAAT8/ZU0q9co1wF8/s1600/Gone.jpg A nurse came by and sai...

Snow on St. Paddies' Eve? Why not. We need to include a chapter on the weather in The Paddler's Guide to Hiking Richland Creek, anyway.

The core of ARG* (Ranger Rick, Cap'n Downstream and I) were on a Middle Fork trip with Ryan Center back in June. Big Ryan took a liking to the DIB, which was rigged out as a sweep boat on that trip. * Arkansas Raft Guides The same core of ARG finished a Grand Canyon trip yesterday. The DIB was set u...

ARG picked a well used red Lotus PFD that was lying on the ground at the campground bridge yesterday afternoon, just before we headed out for home (LR). It obviously belongs to a kayaker (don't ask - we could just tell). When we got home its was raining cats and dogs, so Cap'n Downstream and I left ...
