Wow. Missed a day on here and things got interesting to say the least! I didn't mean to get a big firestorm going here but I totally understand the passion in defending the river. Although my post might suggest otherwise, I truly love the NorthFork and would never do it intentional harm. I agree that I'd rather float / fish down a wild river without development but also know that some of the private landowners can be some of it's strongest allies. I also understand that developing the river and wanting to protect it can be contradictory when you get more and more development down there. ie. we can 'love it to death' As I mentioned initially, I was on the forums in the past as briank but it had been so long that I had to become a member again. Couldn't use the same name for some reason. I could see that it might seem a little 'rude' to jump on here and start trying to sell property that is very hard to put a pricetag on anyway. All that property in the McKee section does have restrictions to protect the riparian corridor. I remember Al's stories about how the Big River south of STL has changed and declined over the years and no one wants to see anything even close to that! On a side note, looks like one of the current 'neighbors' down there may be buying it soon which would be good. bk

I hear your concern and do realize that we can 'love' the river to death. I know that the North Fork is a very special place and worth protecting. The drainfield would be a safe distance of about 500-600 feet away from the river and above the flood zone.

It's been way too long since I've been on here. So long I had to become a new member again.
