Re: Volunteer Urgently Needed: Kings River

Thanks CB, it definately should be someone who knows the area and lives a lot closer than I do. I put out a call to the coordinator of the Kings River Watershed Partnership two days ago but haven't gotten a response yet.

Sugar, If you can go that would be great! Check your PM

Volunteer Urgently Needed: Kings River

During the floods this year a bridge was washed out and gravel was deposited in the area near a bridge on the Kings River. I am not familiar with exactly where this is but the county is threatening to just go in and scoop out the gravel. What's the big deal, right? :roll: Well ADEQ, AGF a and some o...

Re: Why don`t WW paddlers cross over

That's great Donald! I knew there were some racers out there somewhere. Their just to busy training to mess around with us bums. :D

Re: Why don`t WW paddlers cross over

There is competition in whitewater also; whitewater slalom and whitewater rodeo. Those require entry fees also, Richard :D I really don't know why we aren't more involved in competition. Maybe if we had a big sponsored race like the Texas Water Safari in the state to inspire us or one with a really ...

Re: Why don`t WW paddlers cross over

Wow! Lupe! We posted at the same time and said essentially the same thing. Great minds I guess, but "She of Many Words" just filled in all the details! :poke:

Re: Why don`t WW paddlers cross over

Actually, there are quite a few here who paddle on flat water but not as many as elsewhere it seems. The ACC started out as a whitewater club and we seem to have had a culture of belief that whitewater is some how superior to flatwater but that has been changing for some time. We created the recreat...

Re: Upper Cadron Trip Report - A Fayetteville Shale Update

I'm glad that they are being courteous. They should be on their best behavior, since several complaints have been recently turned in to ADEQ about the sediment and the wreckage in the stream. :wink:

Follow the link at the top of this thread. The film is free but seating is limited so you need to make reservations. Call the number listed and ask for directions when you make your reservations.

Re: Buffalo Flows: New Public Screenings

Yes, there is some very good footage of Ken talking about the Buffalo and leading a trail building crew. One part is funny because he has the crew heaving a large boulder out of the way. It rolls down to a perfect position and Ken yells, "Great! It looks like it's been there a thousand years!&q...
