A lot of people wonder how I'm able to do these trips. Well I have some of the best gear sponsors in the industry and I believe and trust in each and every one of them. One in particular stepped up and this trip wouldn't have been possible without there help. They fully sponsored this trip and believed in what we were doin. So thank you to @aftco American Fish and Tackle Co. for supporting and believing in me. |

One of our favorite modern day explorers, Gabriel Gray, spends most of his time on the back waterways of the southeast, inspiring people all over the Country to do their part in protecting and preserving our rivers. He also never leaves home without our river friendly soap and sunscreen °. We're happy we get to go along for the journey. #jteelife @grayoutdoors |

Fishin for some small mouth along the bluffs on the Buffalo was a pretty cool experience. Needless to say I'm glad we didn't depend on fish for dinner though! |

Good hygiene on a expedition is a must, so I use Joshua tree skincare products @jtreelife to protect me from the sun and to keep the B.O away. The tea tree/mint body wash works like a charm against bacteria and is also river safe. °: @jax.berger |

We were lucky to run into carol and chuck bitting on the river. They were enjoying the day with there kids and grandkids when we paddled up. Being strong advocates for the river and watershed alliance members, it was a joy to talk with them and get up to date info on issues. Probably the most exciting and opportunity was giving them the chance to try out our paddleboards! |

Sleeping under the stars is hard for some people because of all the sounds the night holds. For me I love to lay in my hammock tryin to recognize those sounds and connect in a different way. @jax.berger captured an incredible shot of night two. |

As we paddled down the Buffalo we had multiple spots where we encountered this sight. It broke my heart seein people leave there fires burning and trash behind. Out of all the rivers, lakes, and oceans I've paddled on they have one consistent thing in common (trash). Please if you pack it in pack it out, and even if it's not yours pick it up. This is a prime example of people lacking respect for the outdoors and for others. |

Out of the corner of my eye I saw this group trotting along the river bank ahead of us. I picked up my pace tryin to catch up with them, luckily before they crossed the river they stopped a bit. So I got to say hello and visit a little while before they crossed. For those of you that don't know me I grew up on a farm riding and rodeoing. So when I paddled up and started talkin horses with them I think they were a little shocked. I'll post the video of them crossin the river with there dogs soon! |

The put in at Ponca bridge on launch day was packed with paddlers doing day paddles. It's funny how fast word traveled that we were doin the whole river on Paddleboards. I think the person that got the biggest kick out of it was the fish and game officer at the launch. The upper section of the river sees a lot of boat traffic and for good reason, it's scenic bluffs with small whitewater are exciting and amazing. °: @jax.berger |

While hiking along big bluff the day before I saw a roof in the tree line below us next to the river. The next day while paddling and gettin close to that spot, we stopped and pulled over to see if we could find it and this is what we found. When they turned the Buffalo Into a National river they allowed the residents to keep the homestead but couldn't pass it down to family. As residents eventually passed away ruminants of there homesteads remain. For insulation they lined old newspapers on the walls. We found a date on one from March 3, 1952 along with some other neat pictures. °: @jax.berger |

This picture is probably my favorite from the trip because it speaks volumes. With the Fight to SOAR (Save Our American Rivers) project my wife and I hope to grab the attention of not only adults but mainly our youth, paddleboarding, adventure, and awareness helps us do that. Our youth will be the ones dealing with the issues we've created, and they need to be reconnected to nature in a positive way and want to save what we have left. I'll explain more on the purpose of this trip in the next photo this afternoon. °: @jax.berger |

Walkin along Big Bluff overlookin the Buffalo National River my heart filled with a mixture of happiness and anger. The magic and beauty that fills the Buffalo's river basin is irresistible and undeniable. That's why it's so hard for me to imagine someone wanting to endanger it with pollution or disgrace it by littering. The purpose of this expedition is to bring awareness to a major issue that's threatening the river. Pollution from a factory hog farm that has moved onto one of the major tributaries is slowly but surely tainting its waters. To get the full story and to get involved please go to www.buffaloriveralliance.org you can donate to the river and join the alliance it's free. Remember this is the first National river which means it's yours, mine, and our future generations. Mother Nature can't speak or fight for herself she needs our help, when we do and stand together we're powerful. |

Once we reached the trail head to get to Whittaker point, it was a 3 mile r/t hike. As we made our way down the trail we crossed over small streams, explored waterfalls, and gazed in awe at the stunning beauty of the beech trees. Once we reached the point and see the hawks bill crag my heart skipped a beat, it was breathtaking. Wait till you see the shot @jax.berger captured, then you will understand what I'm mean. °: @jax.berger |

Good morning adventure friends I hope y'all have a great day! The day before we launched on the Buffalo we explored some of the local trails, luckily @dannybraught had his 4 wheel drive jeep to get us up too them. I totally get why dogs hold there heads out the window it's amazing and freeing, until that chunk of mud huts ya in the face! °: @jax.berger |

Happy Monday everyone I hope y'all had a great weekend. I wanted to start our Buffalo National River trip from the beginning and the first thing we saw driving into Ponca was a herd of beautiful Elk. Elk were native to Arkansas until around 1840 when they went extinct, and for over hundred years were missed in the valley. A small herd of Rocky Mt. Elk were re-introduced to the Boxley Valley in the 1980's and now they are over 450 strong. |

Lunch break for the day, and plotting a strategy for the up coming storms that are goin to be rolling in. Hail, high winds and possible tornado sounds pretty interesting! This trip so far has been way to perfect we were bound to hit bad weather sooner or later, but hey it's all part of the adventure! |

Well we finally got enough service to put out a post. It's been an amazing first two days on the #buffalonationalriver. This is such a beautiful river with endless opportunities for adventure. With this being the first time anyone has paddled the length of the buffalo on a SUP, it has been a blast seein everyone's reaction them. This picture was on a hike up too Hemmed in Hallow water fall which was incredible. The river is a beautiful turquoise green and is fed by crystal clear creeks like this one. Even though the waters of the Buffalo flow clear and free right now doesn't mean it's safe though. Humans have a insatiable way of destroying Mother Natures gifts to us, wether by industry, development or the most common littering, which we have seen a lot of so far. We have about 7 more days and I can't wait to share the good and the not so good with y'all. Thank you for following along and hope y'all have a great day! |

This morning we hiked to the Hawks bill Craig needs less to say it got a little narrow in some spots. We will lose service after we leave @lostvalleycanoe so we will be out of contact for a few days. I will try and get one more off before we launch in the morning. |

Due to the shallow rocky waters on this upcoming river expedition I'll be adding some necessary equipment to the Badfisher. For a backup paddle I'll be using the three piece carbon blade and coiled re-leash from @boardworkssurfsup, and a set of shorter fins 2&5' from @badfishsup made by @nrsweb. By adding the shorter fins it helps with tracking in shallow waters and I don't have to stop to remove the center fin which is a pain! |

It's crazy how a picture can speak volumes with out saying a word and this shot from @overlandmedia does that. In 15 day's I'll be taking y'all along with me and 4 others on the Buffalo National River. Joining me this time will be Danny Braught @boardersmag, Jackson Berger @not.sourced, Michel Glass @aftco, and Josh Aldridge @overlandmedia. In 1971 the Buffalo was the first river to be designated a national river in the U.S., and flows freely for 150 miles. For decades people have fought for the Buffalo to keep it from being dammed, now they are fighting to keep it clean and protect it from factory farming along its tributaries. It's issues like this that inspired my wife and I to start Fight to SOAR (Save Ou American Rivers) and to also bring knowledge, adventure, and some cool imagery to y'all along the way. I can't wait to share this adventure with y'all and showcase the amazing beauty of the Buffalo National River and Ozarks in Arkansas! Please share and tag any friends you think would enjoy Gray Outdoors and the Fight to SOAR (Save Our American Rivers) project. |

Bag #2 is the chattooga with a padded and insulated insert. Service and power will slim to none out on the Buffalo National River. I'll be using a 10watt solar panel and two @gopuck 5x battery packs. All pictures and video are taken with my iPhone in an @optrix and @exolens case, along with my 3 Virb Elite action cameras by @garmin. To light the way I'll have my 200 lumen rechargeable headlamp by @ledlenserusa. Hopefully I'll get some good night shots while we're sleeping with the new addition of the trail cam. |

OK this is a new addition to the family and I'm very excited to use it. I've had a lot of critters snooping around camp and have even been nudged by a few in my hammock. So hopefully I can get y'all some pics and video of the things that go bump in the night! |

I want to thank everyone for participating in the We Live Adventure weekends. This shot was taken by @lynnfreid on the Flint River in Georgia. Social Media is an amazing tool and can create a lot of attention for the outdoors, our waterways and help inspire our youth in a positive way. So thank you again for all the support and positive interaction with Gray Outdoors and Fight to SOAR. |

When I found the @geigerrig system it changed everything for me. Mainly because with this system I can add an inline virus filter too it and I no longer have to worry about storing clean water in a big on board bladder. It's also pressurized so I can irrigate wounds, share water easily, and use it at camp for cooking. As I'm paddling throughout the day I fill straight from the river and keep paddling. |

To start off the Buffalo River gear break down I'd like to start off this week with what I'll be carrying on the deck of my board. I'll have three @watershed_drybags carrying my gear. TL: Animas backpack 2lbs/54L. TR: Big Creek 1lb/24L. Bottom: Chattooga 1lb/30L. They all have a Ziplock technology which keeps my gear dry even if submerged which is difficult to do, these bags actually hold some air which creates floatation. I'll go through the content and weight of each bag when full next week. |

Happy Friday everyone before we hit the weekend I wanted to show y'all the rig for next months Buffalo National River expedition! With shallow rocky waters the Badfisher inflatable is by far the best choice for this expedition. I'm so excited to get out on the river to share the challenges, beauty, and adventure but mainly to help bring awareness to the issues it faces right now. I hope y'all have a great weekend and don't forget to share your pics with hashtag weliveadventure to be showcased this weekend. |

Next month we head off to Arkansas for the Buffalo National River expedition, which means soon we will start the gear breakdown for the trip. I'll be using the @badfishsup inflatable Badfisher again for this trip and as you can see from this pic, during the Flint River expedition it's a pretty tough inflatable! |

One of the best pieces of equipment you can invest in for your outdoor adventures is a good headlamp. At 220 lumens the SEO 7R by @ledlenserusa is by far the best headlamp I've ever used, not to mention it has a rechargeable battery I can fuel through my solar panel! @desireegardnerphotography captured this amazing shot while out on the Apalachicola River. |
