CLASS III-IV     3.5 miles
  The put-in location is a short drive from Paris, as you can see on the road map further down. The natural beauty of Oklahoma and the playfulness of the water will make you feel great. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, in this general area you'll find lots of paddling rivers. Getting some good exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors have a lot of people coming here. You can pitch a tent or
    park your RV at a nearby campground. This section of Rocky Creek is 3.5 miles long and is a class III-IV section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. The wild scenery of the Ouachita Mountains is great. The Timber
Road 74000 to West Fork Glover River stretch is one of a few paddling stretches in this river system. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. The average Oklahoma whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit easier to master than those in other states, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind  
that many runs in this state are very easy. This is a somewhat short section so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times.

Briefly about the general area:
Going for a hike on the Little Horseshoe Trail is always a perfect adventure, and at Rocky Creek you always meet someone from Battiest. If you want a great time in the great outdoors just come on up to the Ouachita Mountains. Go for a hike on the Signal Mountain Trail. Lots of precipitation falls at Rocky Creek. Of all the months in a year May is the one with the most rain; the driest month is January.
