I'm posting this for a buddy who is without internet access right now but is looking to join up with some folks to do the hailstone friday.

If interested, please call Craig at 501-940-1723

I hope this reply is not completely off base, but it would seem that "canoes" at least (and apparently this is the key wording) are already allowed under the current rules. http://www.carkw.com/source/lake_maumelle.asp" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Rule "33....

Thanks for the info Heather! I will pass it along.

Many pardons if this has been covered before, but I have a buddy that is looking to get a bit of instruction on how to best work his new whitewater boat and he doesn't have the internet access to be asking himself. He knows the UALR sessions take place is wanting to participate in a few. So if someo...

Thx guys. Due to the crossing conditions we have decided not to hike that area and instead are carrying kayaks up Ponca. We did consider coming in from Hill Cem... I have the Moore quad, but since any crossing would be a chore, and probably a dangerous one at that, we decided not to fight the water ...

A buddy and I are thinking about backpacking up Richland Creek towards the falls and camping for a few days, but I'm a bit leery about making such a trip when the water in the creeks and feeder streams is likely to make creek crossings a real chore, if not downright dangerous. Also, I understand the...

Just want to throw out a reminder that input for the Buffalo Management Plan is due Monday August 31. The website says that input will be considered afterwards, but would be most helpful if you can get it in now. http://parkplanning.nps.gov/commentForm.cfm?parkID=119&projectID=23319&document...

I tend to agree that a paid permit system to limit access is not really necessary at this point. The upper river in the springtime is such a circus, though, that limiting the number of boats there may not be a bad idea at all... if only on the weekends. But of course, how in the world would that wor...

Thx Noel,

That is some good information.

I have sent a couple of emails to the BNR parks folks to see if someone there can provide me with some information on their current water quality testing practices. It's only a been a few days, but so far no response. You see, when I set about trying to answer my own questions about water quality te...

If thousands upon thousands of gravel bar whizzes create a problem all by themselves, then, I shudder to think what all those TP-fused gravel bar bombs are doing. I mean, how long does it take a TP-covered turd to stabilize and\or breakdown once deposited into a sandy gravel bar? And what kind of en...

Uh, what Jim said. Having seen liberal examples of the blossoms in question I completely agree that having a limited number of "rest areas" available along the most popular runs (these could even be operated only seasonally?) in conjuction with those that already exist, could have a positi...

Planning to put onto the Buffalo for a camping trip Friday afternoon 10/24, and have been concerned that there might not be ample to water to float without dragging the boat "too" much. (a little dragging here and there is fine) We'll be in 12 ft rec kayaks loaded with gear for 8 days. Not...

At this point I'll for sure be there at 9am with my kayak, and a buddy may or may not show up as well. (It's looking doubtful)

Sounds like fun. I've never done that section of the lil maumelle, so it will be something new for me.
