    I launched from this very spot and pulled off at kyles landing this past year or so. It was the first trip I brought my teenage son on. We also made the hike up to see the falls. This stretch of river as you talked about can be very volatile and not always possible to launch here. They almost didn't let us launch from here the day we went, the water was pretty intense at times. Later after we got out we heard just a couple hours later behind us the watershed from rainfall in the hills caused the river to rapidly raise to very dangerous levels stranding people out there taking shelter up the hills. I've also heard at times they won't launch from spots because it is too low. It is just all over the place as far as water level on this one, sometimes just hours apart. My take away from that experience was to watch the surrounding land going into my future floats and be aware of weather that might be going on in the surrounding area as well. Cetainly something I'll be thinking about if I decide to camp along side the river. Up here in NE Ok we don't see that happen so much on our rivers as the land lays more flat.

    • @TheBeardedBurton
      @TheBeardedBurton  4 роки тому

      Absolutely, if you go back and watch the year before you can see us launching when we shouldn’t have, it was insane and really dangerous.

    That waterfall was awesome. We keep threatening to do a trip on the Buffalo, but have just never pulled the trigger. One of my paddling buddies has done it several times, we just never have all been able to commit. We typically make a trip each Spring Break to the South for some warm water paddling with the gators, down around Okefenokee and that makes it hard for all 7 of us to get together for another interstate trip later in the year. I’m subscribing so that I can see the rest of these videos.

    Every year for the past 15 yrs, a group of us do a multi-day buffalo trip. From your other videos, it seems like we are always on within a few days of each other. the year of that big flood, that you all got flooded in Kyles landing, we were actually camped on a little way up the river after a late start. that next day it was crazy trying to get to kyles. last year was fantastic weather, the whole trip we were talking about its the best weather we have ever had. Keep up the good work on the videos, maybe sometime I'll see you out there. this year we are planning on starting on May 1st, 2020
