Mulberry Sunday?

[David Lewis]

I live in Little Rock, but will be in Fayetteville until Sunday morning. Taking the Pig Trail home, I'll be crossing right over the Mulberry. Assuming the water is somewhere between not there at all and deadly (for moderate-level paddlers like me), I'd sure like to do a run. Anyone else?

I'm thinking High Bank to Whoop & Holler, but only because I've done that run a couple of times before. Am open to suggestions.

My internet access will be spotty between noon Friday and Monday, but I can be reached by cell at 501-three five one - 3456.

I was thinking about the Mulberry for this weekend. They weather liers said five inches of rain Flash Floods and all that noise, but I guess it hit another Arkansas that I'm not aware of. The Mulberry is a Blast a 3.8 i'll save your number and if I go i'll send you a text

[Victor Caballeros]

Oh Bryd's to Turner is a good run.

[David Lewis]

Thanks, Victor. Let's see how it goes. There may be a great deal of rain in that area between now and Friday night, according to a source I trust at the National Weather Service.

You guys let me know if you decide on the Mulberry Sunday. Just got a new boat and want to get it on some water. I've Canoed a bunch but never kayaked. Maybe you guys could teach me a thing or two.

Okay, Taos. Let's see how the level looks. If it's a little hairy, this may not be the best time to step into a kayak for the first time. Personally, I have a little to teach and a lot to learn and have no WW rescue training. You do have a skirt, good PFD and helmet, yes? Is your new kayak a WW boat, rec boat, or what?

BTW, I see that the Mulberry is at 2.7 this morning and rising, which the local guide describes as " Many rapids are at their best in this range. Pools are moving. Too much water for the unprepared."

Given the moderate but widespread rain in the Mulberry watershed I'd expect it to continue rising throughout most of today.

[Victor Caballeros]

Well I guess that rain did hit I was wrong. It's looking good for a Mulberry run after all. I hope it rises to 4 and by sunday 3.5. This all in hoping I have your number. Mine is 479 seven99 1122

[David Lewis]

Cool. Hey, Brad, come join us Sunday. And, by the way, you know that river and you've seen me paddle. If you think at any point I'm getting in over my head, so to speak, I'll listen.

Anyone for Sat.? Somewhere north of Ft Smith...if everything isn't flooded.

[Victor Caballeros]

Will be at Turner Bend at 9:00 to 9:30 am Sunday morning to run a Byrd's to Turner run. Anyone is more than welcome to roll with us.

[Michele Jackson]

I'm posting this for Davis Lewis as he does not have internet service right now. His plans have changed; the Mulberry trip has been aborted.

Due to river changes from flooding the last couple of years take the Turner Bend guide for river levels and had half a foot to it. That'll get it more accurate. At two foot you're dragging bottom for half of your trip. Just a little info for newcomers.
