River Description

This river offers a good Class II to III+ challenge among A+ scenery in the Ouachita National Forest.

The river is generally pool drop with the pools in the first half of the run containing some decent current. Higher water levels offer lots of big waves and a few hydraulics.

Put-in: Ouachita National Forest Campground Albert Pike. Take Hwy 369 North from Hwy 84 at Langley.

Take-out: Hwy 84 bridge West of Langley. There are a couple of access roads on the strecth below Edgar's surprise for other options.

Below Big Hole, the river offers larger pools but still has a few nice rapids and waves, most notable is 'Accellerator'.
