Wintertime on Richland Creek (Click on photograph to purchase a print)
Over the past 20 years, I guess I have spent more time on this creek than any other in Arkansas. Richland Creek offers to much for the avid outdoors person. It’s a great hike anytime of the year. When it’s up from recent rain, it’s a floaters dream offering over 16 miles of great whitewater. It’s tributaries like Falling Water Creek or Big Devil’s Creek offer excellent side hikes and their own excellent scenery. Richland is one of the largest tributaries of the Buffalo River and runs into the Buffalo at Woolum Ford. This photograph was taken on Richland about 1/2 above the campground and is a view that I feature often.
