Well it's about time. But I'm not on time for today.
Just noticed that gage myself wish I would have seen that coming. Hopefully it will get some more and stay up for tomorrow.

I know a lot of folks skip the Tot when it's "low" like in the 3' foot range, but I am so desperate to paddle that I will call in tomorrow if it's over 3'. Anyone else?

I'm off and I may be able to find my boat and gear in the dust and cobwebs.

Looks like it will still be there for Friday. 4.2 high and rising.

Hey everybody I found 2 new waves on Cantrell in LR. I paddled my creek (II) about 1 mile then went looking for the source. Remembered another potential spot and hiked the woods a bit and found 2 waves about 5-7ft across with a 2ft trough and good eddys. I sent pics to Renee and she said she posted them on her FB.

Went to ask the business owners bout yaking behind their place and they were like OMG that is sooo cool. Ended up watching me surf.

Going to the Cosatot tomorrow but if its still raining on Friday I'll head back for more surfin.

For those not paddleing the Tot, See my post about sea kayaking on The White River from Town of Beaver in Rec Section.

Already promised, and baked a loaf of Banana Bread for it.

Got three spare sea kayaks if someone doesn't have a boat but has the skill and desire and time to go do scenic water, possibly with current. Might even have the clothing to go with it if you are the right sizes, but would need to know tonight to load and dig out spare gear.

Hey Gannon, if Friday goes off I'll be happy to meet up with you in lil rock and surf some. I usually carry my boat in to work at UALR, and paddle Coleman Creek when it runs. It was runnable today, but I didn't have my boat and gear with me.
four 1 three, seven 4 zero 1 is my number, call me if you hit anything in little rock Friday.
Peace,

S.E. Oklahoma

Post by roadtrip » Thu Dec 30, 2010 10:06 am

New to this forum. I'm in E. Texas and do most of my paddling in Tex. and Ok, but I hope to float the Buffalo this spring.
As to the topic, the rivers in S.E. Oklahoma are rolling right now, the Kiamichi, the Glover , the Mt.Forks, and the Little. For you whitewater folks the Glover would be the way to go. Ideal is supposed to be 500-1000cfs. It's very remote though and can be hard to find the put-ins.
