Description[edit | edit source]

The lowest section of Jacks Fork, ending at Two Rivers.

The first two miles of this float are inside the "Eminence Gap", part of the river not inside the Ozark National Scenic Riverways. This can mean more boats or different priorities from law enforcement. The State of Missouri grants the public access to boat, paddle, and wade the river up to the normal high water mark, which is marked by where permanent vegetation like bushes and trees start to grow. Avoid areas marked with purple paint, flags, or tape - this is a Private Property No Tresspassing convention for Missouri.

Always boat sober and leave no trace!

Gauge[edit | edit source]

The lower Jacks Fork, from Alley to Two Rivers, is floatable year round thanks to the springs that feed it. You can get an idea of the current levels using the gauge at Eminence.

Unsafe: At 6.4ft (~3700CFS), the park will close the river.
