These photos were taken 2 years ago during a late May rise on the upper Buffalo River. They were taken with a Canon S95 Point and Shoot camera, from Hedges Pour-off. I think they show the wilderness character and the high gradient of the river above Boxley, Arkansas. It is a beautiful float trip for only the most experienced boaters due to limited access for about 20+ miles of Class II to
ocassionally Class IV whitewater. It should not be attempted alone by anyone.
With the river coming up now, this coming weekend may create a chance for EXPERIENCED ONLY boaters.
Because of your blog, we have become interested in your part of Arkansas. Where would you recommend we could call for lodging as a base for exploration, fishing and hiking?
Keep up the beautiful pictures!
Thank you very much. I will try to help but so much depends on what activities youd like to engage in. Do you want to canoe, kayak, climb, day hike, backpack, visit historical places, etc. and whether you’d like to camp or rent a cabin, and what level of cabin you’d like. Please let me know and I will give you a solid recommendation. Regards, Steve
