Come join us us for a weekend on the beautiful Current and Jacks Fork rivers near Eminence, MO!
Meeting up at 9am Saturday at Eminence canoe, cottages and camp. We'll run shuttle, then float the Current from Pultite to Round Spring, about 9 miles. Canoe rentals are available at the campground for anyone needing one.
Sunday we'll float the Jacks Fork from Alley Spring to Eminence, 7 miles. Meet at the campground at 9am, run shuttle, then launch.
If anyone else is interested, I'd like to float Akers to Pultite on the Current Friday starting late morning or early afternoon.
Please contact me if interested.
