Goat trail/Big bluff overnight backpack trip Buffalo National River, Ark.

We started our trip Monday morning December 28, 2020. Made camp at the Buffalo River that night and hiked back out to centerpoint trailhead the next day.
Hiked around 7 miles the first day and 4 miles back out the next day.

Where did u guys camp? Did u cross the river on the right side when u go further after goat trail? Cos theres a junction once u reached the bottom the other trail is going to jim bluff.

Hello, my apologies for not getting back sooner. On your question once we got down to Jim’s bluff we hung out there for a little while and then walked along that bluff line next to the river over to Centerpoint Trail by Granny Henderson‘s cabin. If you do that then you don’t have to cross the river which is a good thing because it’s pretty deep there😊. As far as in camping we went by Granny’s cabin up into Sneeds Creek area to camp.

Hello Bryan, I watched your video as I'm planning a camping trip to this area. I've been on this exact hike before, but I can't recall specifically how to get to Jim's Bluff...Do you have a map or directions to that spot. Thank you!

[@bryanozbun8366]

Hi there, what we did is did the extension of the goat trail past big bluff. The trail will continue on around the bluff down to the river. Once you get to the bottom you will intersect old River Trail. At the intersection turn left and Jim’s Bluff will be down that direction about a half a mile.
Hopefully this will help! I don’t have a map with me right now but you might be able to view it on the all trails app.

@@bryanozbun8366 Thank you very much! That helps confirm what I was thinking.

@@andrewhopexa1114 You’re welcome!! If the river is somewhat low you can walk the ledge there at Jim’s bluff to connect the Sneeds Creek and Granny Henderson Homestead.
