Am considering heading to the south fork of the little red tomorrow if the level is good. Not sure how fast the level will drop out by tomorrow so will have to wait and see. Anybody interested let me know

that sounds good. My wife has been wanting to with me and I've never been on the little red so don't know much about it. She hasn't been on moving water in her whitewater kayak yet, but she has a pretty decent roll on flat water and she has rec kayaked on some class II before. Just wondering if she would be ok on the little red, or should she wait to go on a cadron trip first. Any input is appreciated.

-thanks

I was eyeing this one too. Could make it there around noon, maybe a little earlier. I have done bigger water than this, but it will be my first time on it so I can't offer any insights what it will be like for you wife though.

If you have other capable boaters for support, she should be good to go.

I'm in for the South Fork. I could stand a little later meeting time though.

Nick where are you coming from and what is your schedule?

I'm gonna be coming from searcy, and was wondering where would be a good place to meet up at tomorrow. I don't wanna have to drive to down all the way to conway since its about same distance to the river, and i'm not 100% sure how to get to the put-in or take out.

Big Nick and all, that's about the latest that I think we should leave tomorrow, for the Oil Slick Rd to Culverts run. Kate says her and David are in as well.
