Floating Season is Here!


Hello Everyone,

Floating season is finally here.  The weather last week was perfect.  This week however the cold has moved in again.  This morning at Steel Creek it was a freezing 30 degrees & it hasn't warmed up much as the day moves on.  We have finally started getting much needed rain.  The river is just right for rafting, canoeing or kayaking.  Richard & I hiked from Ponca to Steel Creek & back to Ponca last Sunday.  The weather was so nice.  The trees are starting to green out & the dogwoods & redbuds are blooming.  I love this time of year.  After the terrible ice storm in Feb.  we really need a change around here.  Hopefully the leaves will help mask the damage.  There are several spring flowers blooming & moral mushrooms were springing up last week.  The cold will put a halt to that, but warmer weather will eventually come back.  The photos above are of our spring in cold weather-notice the icicles & the kayaks are just above the Ponca bridge.  I will try to get some more posts on here with more photos.--Misty
