One of your most difficult decisions will be which lovely wooded or gravel bar campsite to choose each night. You and the kids can enjoy short side trips to caves, ghost towns, and historic sites. After 50 miles, below Gilbert, you'll find 15 miles of popular day-tripping water. The last 40 miles of the river, to a take-out at its confluence with the White River, are seldom paddled, providing a rare opportunity to be alone with spring and fall migratory birds, herons and hawks, deer, and otters and beavers. In spring the forest burns with the colors of azalea, laurel, rosebud, and rhododendron.
