Good levels for Siloam Springs Park?

Post by RiverRummer » Tue Aug 29, 2017 7:20 pm

I went for the 1st time last week when it was at 4 ft., which is low but still in the "green" on the ozark pages river level site.
the 1st wave was too small and not surfable, the 2nd ledge., was a diagonal "wave" that just sends you down and off, didn't look like there was a 3rd spot down below. did the river level change when these were made?
what is a good level now?
4 ft is way too low.
Thanks

Best surfing is between 3.0 ft and 3.5 ft on the top wave. The last flood wiped out the middle wave. Until the lead-in rocks are put back in place there will be little action.

wow, I thought it was too low, and it wasn't low enough.
It is a nice park and I was glad to finally get to see it ( and not get shot at from the stories i've heard )
I'll have to try it again

Thanks for the info

I haven't been there yet, but I heard they replaced at least one of the rocks on the second wave
