Paddling in Arkansas with Ouachita Outdoor Outfitters

 

 

 

There’s paddling in Arkansas?  If you’ve watched ‘Arkayakansas,’ you know the answer to this question is ‘yes.’  And, Jared, Dave, and I were fortunate enough to experience some of Arkansas’ classic runs.  

To conclude our US summer road trip, we stopped at Ouachita Outdoor Outfitters in Hot Springs, Arkansas for a paddle session and video premier.   With the help of an unusual amount of rain for the month of August, we were able to paddle Baker Creek and the Cossatot.   A great crew showed up to paddle with us down these fun runs and later watch the ‘Demshitz‘ movie at Buffalo Wild Wings.  Thanks to Jeremy and Don for the refreshments and hospitality!   Keep checking in on this site, because there might be a short video of Arkansas kayak boofing and Andy’s remote control car boofing over and through people.  I hope we get to paddle with these guys again next year!

Here are some pictures Dave took of the paddle down the Baker.   Watch ‘Arkayakansas‘ for some better footage.  

This store has a Medium Mission Burn for sale!  So, if you are bummed you did not get one of the limited edition camouflage Burns a couple of years ago, check it out!
