The Jacks Fork River
Float Trip:

The upper Jacks Fork River is one of Missouri’s wildest and most scenic streams. 
It’s deep valley extends about 30 miles from the Prongs to Alley Spring. In April and May this section provides floaters beautiful class 2 water. Due to lack of access, it is the most primitive of rivers in this region. From Alley Spring to Two Rivers is a beautiful class 1 river and is floatable year-round. Fishing on the Jacks Fork is excellent. The 25 miles of river from 17 Bridge to Hwy 106 Bridge at Alley Spring, is best. We offer 20 different trips on the Jacks Fork River depending on the water levels.
All boaters are offered a trash bag to help us keep the river in the most pristine condition possible. We hope you’ll help by packing it in, and packing it out.

Personal Boat Shuttle:

We also offer personal boat shuttles for folks who want to use their own water craft. Our insurance does not allow us to move your vehicle, but we can make any arrangement around that. Whether you need to be taken to your put-in, or picked up at your take-out, or both. After Booking, we will contact you for specifics.
Personal shuttles can also be added to a group rental float at the time of Booking. Combination Float and Shuttle are common and we are happy to accomodate.
