Date:

Current Status: Open with some issues

Additional Details: Recent rains have caused the river levels to rise substantially. Buffalo River is approximately 3' deep. Lifted vehicles with larger tires (33" +) may find it difficult and/or dangerous to cross Buffalo River. There's another crossing that's about 30" deep 1/2 mile north of the main crossing. We recommend checking water levels first, but this is typically the alternative crossing point. Aside from water levels, the rest of the trail is running fantastic!

Current Status: Open with some downed trees around Mill Creek rd. (All cleared)
Additional Details: Downed trees around Mill Creek rd. I was able to clear the trees with my chainsaw & winch. So it should be passable for now.
