Here are a couple from Lower Longpool Falls this morning. I imagine they will be flowing much better tomorrow after these storms move through tonight. By the way looks like no ice damage except for trees that were dead and falling anyway.

I'll bet your right Matthew, all the falls must be running much better today after reading that the area had 2"+ of rain overnight. There will be some good waterfall hunting these next few days for sure in Arkansas. Have fun!

Beautiful shot, looks like a good place to just sit for a spell and enjoy the waterfall.

Thanks Tom, and thanks for the work you have done up at Richland clearing roads. I am hoping to get up there this weekend if I can. Any chance I could come in from the cemetery route, It doesn't sound like it but I was just wondering. Again thanks.

Hey Matthew, I have not actually been up there, it has been some friends of mine in the canoe club doing the work. My bet is that the road to the cemetery is still blocked, it is not a high priority for these guys. Your best bet for the falls would be from Richland Campground. Even though the campground it is closed, you can hike in from the gate at the entrance. The water is pretty high right now and it will be tricky wading the creek to get to Twin Devil Falls but not impossible. Be careful!

Oh well my mistake thank your friends for me then. Wading is what I am worried about.
