Off all day looking to boat somewhere in a 2-3ish hour drive range(120 miles or so) of Springfield. Up for suggestions Class III-V. If I don't hear anything guess I'll have to break down & get a Facebook account (please dont make me do that)

As of 7:30pm all the gauges have turned back up. Its looking like the rare time where there will be too much water. Its been years since I've run the more well known high water micro creeks(ie The Richland Creek Tribs, The small Mulberry Tribs) & I've never run any of the creeks that are running right now(Buffalo stuff) Without more people I'd be way less than comfortable running anything unless the bottom falls out of a few gauges tonight. That said I'll look again at say 5am.

Its also looking like this forum is less than ideal to find boating trips on a short time notice. Damn you facebook.

I'd be available to paddle III-IV assuming this rain slows down. I'm in NWA.

Rain is starting to taper off in Washinton, Crawford, and Franklin Counties. Hydrographs are headed down or will be shortly to optimal levels for some runs in the areas I just mentioned. Rain anticipated to be out of area by crack o noon.
