Re: Taking group to glenwood(caddo) Need info please.
Thanks LifeJacket. That makes me feel much better. I do understand what dan means though .. i whitewater raft every year in Oregon during AUGUST and that water is SUPER cold!! Ican't imagine being in that water for over 10 minutes without having a total shutdown. I know the begining of summer season is always a little risky on water temp in arkansas. As long as the sun is out we always make it ok.. but when theres a lot of cloud cover thats when the shivers, shakes and goosebumps come out. You guys are the best thanks for all the info!!

Dan, I probably could have and should have worded my previous post better. Hope I did not offend you, I did not actually read but the first 2 lines of your previous post. I just did not want someone to think the water was colder than most streams around for some reason, hypothermia is always a concern when dealing with water.

Its was about a 2 mile float. We went about a mile through town took a left hand turn down a dirt road. We went through a pasture and were dropped off by the river. Its privet land thats up for sale according to the bus driver. Our take out was at the bridge (hwy . **WARNING** at the end it took us 2 hours to go 600 yds. (we didn't mind but others might )

Yes, this is the reason we discouraged the full float on tubes. There are a couple more pools that would have been 600 yds in 2 hrs.

We all had a great/safe time thanks to ya'll. We are going to do canoes next time for a company trip, and that way we will get to do the long haul!!
