Ouachita River

Post by dlinn » Sun Jul 03, 2016 6:08 pm

I have seen this near I30 after the dam was opened. Was definitely not canoe safe. Wondering when or if one may be able to canoe this, possibly from the dam to Grisby Ford Road. I'm seeing that is approx. a 10 mile run?

Thanks in advance

I assume you mean Remmel dam that impounds lake Catherine. If so it's a nice little float up to about 3500 CFS. Most people take out at the WW play park in Rockport. Great way to spend a dog days Saturday afternoon.
You come too.

Most welcome, and now that everything else is pretty well done folks will be organizing floats for the rest of the summer. Just keep an eye on the Paddling Trips section. If it's posted there you're invited. Kids too. Lots of class I splashy fun.
You come too.
