I'm a newbie here at ACC and kayaking, but if I'm up at my place, which is very near holloheads place, I'll be in for helping clear the brush out of Osage. Hollohead, I drove down to your place a few weekends ago after reading about it here. You've got a super sweet spot there, man!! You definitely ...

The Ponca Elk Education Center is a great place to spend some time and your daughter will love it! Also, adding to Fish's list of the Compton area - McFerrin Point is another great (short and easy) hike with incredible views of the Buffalo River valley.
