OK, FIRST OFF ,THIS IS NOT AN ARKANSAS CANOE CLUB FUNCTION.... and each person is responsible for themselves ,each water craft needs a live vest for each person, trash bag, and a koozie for your drinks. BUFFALO RIVER CANOES will be doing our shuttle for a cost of $7.00 per head , and they will not make change !.we are meeting @ pruitt on hwy 7 south of Harrison at 9:30 to 10 am . and they will load up our boats and shuttle us up stream to Eurbie . this will be a 7.5 mile float the water is ice cold and this being our first trip of the season i would suggest you to bring extra dry stuff to ware in the event you have an up set along the river . i have extra dry bags if you need one ...i do need a head count .and need to know what your paddling canoe, or kayak. tonight before 9:30 pm post or call ..four seven~9 eight four 1 ~2 five five 4

the eurbie to pruitt ,and pruitt to hasty will still be good water..... ponca isn't a possibility because steel creek and kyle's road are closed . i'm not sure from snow or because it's too soft and muddy i'll post after the trip ..

The road closed barricade is no longer at Steel Creek. I was driving too fast to notice Kyles.
And I had a great elk burger at the Arkansas House in Jasper.
