Anyone floated passed the state line bridge? What's it like and where does it go? Thinking of floating from Lake Bella Vista down today just to stay local. Anyone interested in coming with 479-295-5999.

It eventually becomes little sugar and flows into the Elk River.

Watch out for logjams at bridges!!!!!

Trip report?

I've always wanted to do the Arkansas section. Friends and I have talked about putting in behind Hendren Auto right on the state border. We've floated many times from just above Highway 90 Bridge in Missouri to a low water bridge at County Road 39. That section is fun when it's up. There's a strange person who lives right by the Highway 90 bridge who'll try to bully you into parking on their land and paying them, but we always ignore her and park along the dirt road. The shuttle is short.
I'd like to join you if you ever do this in the future.

Thanks for the info. I'm certain it will be useful in the future. Curtis I'll keep your number handy and give you a shout the next time I paddle the creek. Its close and convenient for a quick little bit of fun.
