The Current River, More Than 40 Years Ago

My dad took this picture from one of our camping spots during a float trip on the Current River in Missouri more than 40 years ago.

  • This takes me back to long ago arguments about which was the best float: the Current, the Jacks Fork, or the 11 Point.

    (For my money I always liked the Black river best.)

  • I’ve done all of the above. Did 500 miles one summer. There was a time that I knew every rock in the Current River from its shallowest putting-in point ‘way down into Arkansas.

    I used to love the Jacks Fork. Of course, that was nearly a half century ago.
