Salado or Sylamore Paddle

[dwshaw]

I am looking for someone who wants to paddle either Salado creek - South of Batesville (Class II+ - III) or Sylamore Creek near Mountain View (Class II - II+). I have paddled both multiple times but don’t want to run them alone. My paddle buddy is on his way to Scotland... I drove out to Salado earlier today and it is holding steadily well above the rocks and over the now collapsed rock bridge. The Sylamore is at 3.7 and dropping. Ideally i like to run Sylamore at 4’ or higher. Hopefully some rain tonight will bring it back up. Send me a message or respond here if you are interested in going Monday or Tuesday. Thanks.

looks like the rain gods answered your prayers... sylamore's at 12 ft

Yeah I just saw that. I have ran it at 5'. 12 is waaay to high for me. I could go tomorrow or Wednesday if anyone is free.

Finally remembered my login. Haven't been on here in a while. Hopefully some old paddling buddies from NWA might see this... Sylamore and Salado are both way up so tomorrow or Wednesday would be better. Text me at 479-two hundred-6465 if you want to paddle. I will be in a Jackson 4 Fun but don't discriminate against you open boaters. I have an extra boat or two if anyone needs to borrow one for a run.

Thanks.
