Arkansas had some uncharacteristically heavy rains in early August, making the waterfalls run at a time of the year when even decent-sized rivers are generally down to a trickle. Gina and I had a day when Abby was occupied elsewhere and ran up to Falling Water Creek to check out the high water. We checked in with Fuzzy Butt Falls, a waterfall I had not been to. The fall is in a small canyon on a small tributary of Falling Water Creek and is a beautiful spot.
It’s just a shortish hike along a horse trail that follows the west side of Falling Water Creek. The hike also affords access to Six Finger Falls on the Falling Water.
On our way out we stopped at the main attraction on Falling Water Creek, Falling Water Falls, and watched a couple of kayakers brave the 10-foot drop.
This guy didn’t let the lack of a kayak deter him from experiencing the thrill of a drop over the falls.
