SOUTH FORK OF THE LITTLE RED RIVER VIDEO

[CAPTAIN ALEVE]

If you Class II paddlers out there have not been on the South Fork of the Little Red River about 20 miles west of Clinton, near the small community of Scotland, a thrilling treat awaits you. I would recommend a higher water level than what Steve Heye and I paddled it at, 5.43 feet on the USGS gage that is near the put-in:

I'd say between 6.0 and 6.5 would be a great level for a group of paddlers who can support one another. Here's a link to a brief video that just shows some highlights of the action and not much of the great scenery:

I'll add this river to the Class2Arkansas website collection with complete details of how to get there in the near future.
