Wachita Creek     [ back ]
Location: Madison County



[ map]
 
Difficulty: Class II
 
Put-in/Take-out: The put-in is on hwy MM which is just a mile or 2 past the upper put-in for the Saint Francis. Follow the road until it turns into gravel, take the right fork and the first creek you cross is the put-in.
The take-out is the Saint. This creek meets the river about 2 miles above the upper put-in.
 
Description: This is the perfect first time creek. There are just one or two safe class II rapids that are tight enough to give you a taste of creeking. The scenery is a plus too.
