Southwest MO??

Post by tomOzarkVideo » Mon May 21, 2012 6:54 am

We were heading back from the Elk :shifty: River on Sunday.

Around noon we saw a Suburban, with about 10 playboats strapped on booking it up Hwy 71. :drool2:

It rained like crazy in Pineville on Sunday morning.


Is there a WW stream somewhere near hwy 71?

tanyard creek has a really good waterfall, but it is not as far north as pineville.

There's some decent hills up that way, so there's probably something worth running somewhere.

Probably not... but Shoal Cr. in Joplin has some ledges that can generate play if the water gets real big. Other than that, the next stop for a playspot would probably be Kansas City. If you make it up that far (and that's pretty desperate!), give me a holler!

That's a couple of expert replys.

Maybe they were on their way out west or something.

Dude... I've already asked off work for a July nante trip.

I'll drive across the country for some water.
