Jacks Fork Float Trip
June 24 2022 - June 25 2022
Let’s have a little river fun!!! Some people will be camping Fri and Sat nights. If you want to camp the camping details are below. If you want to show up on Sat am for the float only you are welcome to do that as well.
Loops 8-9 are reservable. Let’s all try and book spots in loop 9 first. If you miss out on booking a spot, don’t worry they have a bunch of first come first serve tent sites available. They almost always have RV sites open that you can grab. I can’t guarantee that though. On the RV sites you can have one additional tent with a RV. So if you want to buddy up with friends you can do that. One more piece of info about the RV sites. The only electric sites they have are in loop 6. They are all booked. You can however, bring a quiet generator if you have one.
Boats:
If you have your own boats you can bring them. We will set up shuttle and shuttle personal boats. It’s an easy set-up.

If you need to rent boats: Let both outfitters know you are with OJT with a 10am launch time. I have contacted them about our group.

We will be floating Alley Springs to Eminence. It’s about a 7 mile float.
On Friday night we will go check out Alley Spring. On Sat night we will drive a backroad into Eminence to have ice cream at the Dairy Shack. https://www.facebook.com/DairyShack/
On Sunday on the way home we will go check out Rocky Falls. If you have not been to see this it’s pretty cool!
Everyone will be responsible for their own food and drinks.
If you come early on Friday, you can enjoy some river time at a sandy beach riverside!
A few words about the float and river: The people with their own boats will launch up river a few minutes from the outfitters. Personal boat folks will launch at 10am and meet the renters at the launch site. Wendy Twitty will have a bright orange flag on her boat. Look for that. Her boat is blue. It will be super busy with lots of people launching at the same time. If we have a large group it may be a bit hard to keep everyone together. We will try our best!!!
