SUMMARY:21st Annual Buffalo Headwaters Challenge
DESCRIPTION:The Buffalo Headwaters Challenge presented by Adventure Subaru is a three-day\, all-inclusive\, “off the grid” mountain bike and trail running festival. It includes 5 meals\, libations\, primitive tent and RV camping\, live music\, and amazing trails\, highlighted by the annual “Challenge” ride and this year the new run on Saturday\, January 31st\, 2026. The “Challenge” ride consists of a 35-mile semi-supported backcountry mountain bike experience\, a 30 K and 15 K challenge run with a few marked bailouts along the way. It’s a ride\, not a race… just finishing is winning. During your ride\, you will possibly encounter DJs in the woods and of course\, the infamous grilled cheese and soup at the iconic fire tower. Additionally\, on Sunday\, you will have the option to join the gravel challenge group ride to the Buffalo Outdoor Center or use your wristband at the Buffalo Outdoor Center\, which will provide you with free shuttles for the DH runs all day. \nImportant! This is our annual fundraiser for the club and goes a long way in providing the needed tools and materials that go into the 10\,000 hours plus volunteers put in each year. A large portion of this years proceeds will go directly into trail maintenance at the headwaters. With that in mind this is a non refundable event. If weather becomes an issue we will reschedule event to a later date but will not be offering refunds. Thank you for your understanding. \nAll attendees will receive a pair of custom event socks. \nComplete your challenge and receive your patch once you check back in. \nWe will have post ride yoga on Saturday. \n-A limited number of primitive RV spots are available for an additional $25.00. (no hook ups\, you are paying for the space) \n-Tickets will be limited in quantity. \n-For 5 meals\,  live bands\, free beverages\,  killer routes \, amazing humans\, and a special swag bag you aren’t going to find a better deal! \nDinners provided by Phat Tire Bike Shop\, Pro Chill and  OORC. \nThanks for you continued support and much gratitude to all of our sponsors. \nLunch at the fire tower provided by The Buffalo Outdoor Center \nBeverages by Trailside Coffee Co\, Fossil Cove Brewery\, Liquor World and the OORC \nBreakfasts provided by Ozark Natural Foods and the OORC.

We’ve had sunny skies\, rain\, fog\, and sometimes all during the same event. Snow is possible\, but not anticipated. \nBe prepared to face all that the weather can throw at you! \nWill I be running in the dark? \nYes.  You should bring a light source and back up batteries.  At this time of year\, the average sunrise is 6:45 AM and the average sunset is 6:00 PM. \nWhat do I need to bring? \nAt very minimum\, all racers will be required to carry a water bottle or hydration pack AND a light (flashlight or headlamp) at dark. Due to the remote nature of parts of the trail\, runners will not be allowed on the course without a way to carry water. We strongly suggest you carry a backup light with you at all times.  If you’re wondering about additional gear\, check out this video from Runner’s World. A cell phone is recommended and and service is good on the majority of the course. \nHow tough is the course? \nTerrain = very hilly\, total climb between 100 and 200 feet per mile (5\,000 – 8\,000 feet in 50 miles)\nSurface = trail or dirt road with substantial rocks\, roots and/or ruts

SUMMARY:Rose Creek Walk
DESCRIPTION:This is a Rose Creek Initiative Outing!\n\n\nIf you have any questions\, please email Mike Sprague at msprague17@hotmail.com\, or call or text him at 406-370-4792.\n\n\n\nMeet at: the warehouse parking lot (2226 North Cantrell Road\, Little Rock\, AR 72202) near Gill Street and near where Rose Creek enters the Arkansas River. From there we will shuttle to the Burger King/Fire Station area on Markham Street and walk the creek back.\n\nThis walk is a great adventure that journeys down Rose Creek through the Capitol View-Stifft Station Neighborhood (and beyond). Following the creek is quite a trek and goes through a diversity of landscapes that can’t be seen elsewise. It’s great way to get to know the creek and the area!\n\nThis 2½-to-3-mile walk is mostly in the creek\, and much of it is on rocky\, uneven surfaces.\n\nPlan for about two hours\, and because much of it will be in the water\, tall rubber boots are recommended.
