THE DETAILS
Float the Ozarks with 37 North Expeditions and the James River Basin Partnership! The James River and its tributaries has over 300 river miles from its headwaters in Webster County all the way to where it empties into Table Rock Lake. Floating the James was the gateway to Ozarks’ recreation in the past and introduced many folks to our beautiful hills, wildlife, and waterways. Float one or all these sections of the James and learn more about our most precious cultural and natural resource – our local water.

Many folks still reference the Big Smith song, “Dirty Old James”, but water quality has vastly improved in the James River Basin since the late 1990s. We all – urban dwellers, rural landowners, and recreational enthusiasts – play a part in protecting our Ozarks’ streams. Learn what improvements have been made to improve water quality in the James River basin, and what you can do to help.
