Honobia to Cloudy Road section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II 40 miles
The Honobia to Cloudy Road section of Little River in Leflore/ Pushmataha County is 40 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class II section. The average Oklahoma whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be easier to run than those in other states, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that a large number of rivers in this state are quite easy. Getting a good workout and spending some quality time in nature are sure to keep you coming back for more. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby.
Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way there are not so many other good places for that around here. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set.
This is the only paddling section along Little River. The beauty of the Ouachita Mountains is a great plus for this river. The scenic beauty of Leflore/ Pushmataha County and the playfulness of the water make the trip here worthwhile. A stretch this long is of course too much for a one day trip, so make sure you pack enough food along with your camping gear.
Briefly about the general area: Little River sees pretty high levels of rain; the wettest month of the year is regularly May, that's the one that rains the most, and January meanwhile is
the driest month. There's no way somebody can get bored here in the Ouachita Mountains. There is a wonderful hiking trail in the vicinity of Little River called the Silver Suck Trail, and going for a hike on the Flashman Trail is always a perfect adventure. Throughout the warm
months at Little River highs are regularly in the 80's. When the night sets in temperatures plunge down into the 60's. For the duration of the wintertime the highs are mostly in the 40's, and overnight lows in the 20's for Little River.
