First off, this is definitely not a destination run, so don't plan a day around it...it is right outside Mena, so if you are coming from Ft. Smith or NWA to the tot then it may be worth the detour. I would say it is probably Class III+...probably harder if it is really cranked. There are 5 drops, there first of which is the concrete from the spillway actually dropping 6-8 ft on to rocks...so you need a little bit of water for the first one to be runnable (not for the landing, but so you don't get hung up on the concrete). Everything else is good to go, my favorite part is the last drop because it is a 10-12 ft low angle slide that you run, then surf the hole or ferry the pile from the hole directly into a Zoom Flume esque chute.
Drops 2 and 3, there are a couple places you could get pinned in the 3rd drop so check it out before you fire it up.
Drops 1 through 4; 1 being the drop off the concrete slide, and 4 being the first of two low angle slides.
Follow the leader above the 5th drop.
Have fun!
