New Posts St. Francis River
The St. Francis River, one of MO's finest and most diverse. From its headwaters in the St. Francois mountains to where it exits Missouri in the Southeast Mo. lowlands, it starts at one of the highest elevations and leaves at the lowest. The upper end is home to clear waters and fast runs. Whitewater championships are held in the upper reaches in the spring flood season. After the Little St. Francis and Big River enter in, the river forms deep runs with riffles at each end. It is dammed up from near Greenville to Wappapello Dam forming a 44,000 lake for flood control. After that it becomes a lowland river, slow and deep, full of silt, to Wilhelmina at Mo.'s lowest point.
