Short Version: Class II, suitable yet exciting for beginners, but with a few play spots that are fun even for very experienced boaters. Water is cool enough to help you deal with 100+ degree heat, providing natural air conditioning in the river valley, but not so cool that you need anything more than a swimsuit, pfd, and sunscreen. A summer gem in these dry times.

Cowper just confirming that I'm still in. See you there, I'll be at the dam before 3pm. BOB

Can't wait for the dinner after and I'm betting that the restaurant owner will be a happy guy this week!!!

Do you have room for two or three more boats if I promise not to swim past the take-out?
Danny

[Cowper]

Hey man, you've got it all backwards: We'll make room for more boats if you promise that you WILL swim at the take-out!

(several of us are going to a River rescue clinic this weekend, so if we get in some early practice, then so muchthe better!)

[Chicago Bob]

Dan you're welcome to swim past the take-out, I just don't want to paddle down to the 27 bridge again. Of course you're welcome to join us the more the merrier. Looking forward to seeing you again, and thanks for the pics. BOB

Cowper, what time are you guys stopping in benton, and where? I can meet up with you there..and either hop in or follow you guys down in my truck. Either way. Count me in!

Joe

[Cowper]

Joe, I'm thinking noonish - depends a little on whether I can make it down to OOO today, or need to stop by tomorrow.

I'll nail it down today and post an exact time and place tonight after I get home from pool sessions.

I think my truck currently has me, Doug, Michael, meaning we have room for you too. Kind of a scary combination, but WTH, I need to learn how to live dangerously again...

[Teaches With Fire]

I'ld like to tag along too, if you have room for a newbie on the river. I can drive and would have room for at least 1 more boat on the roof rack from LR or Benton.

Since we still have folks joining in, we'll figure out there how many cars /trucks we can combine, and how many we need to roll to the river.

[JTarver]

I'm in! See you guys at Home Depot at Noon!
