Busiek State Forest, Springfield, Missouri

Woods Fork Creek is a pretty stream that flows the length of the area.

This shot was taken in September and the water is only a few inches deep.  However, in the spring, the flow will usually be knee deep and fill past the gravel beds you see in this photo.  Click here to see a shot of high water.

A little warning:  you have to cross Woods Fork 20 feet out of the east parking lot.  In the spring and early summer you'll get wet.
