Pristine waterways are one of the hallmarks of the Ozarks and close-by regions. Though many of the rivers continue to be beautiful, are you noticing a decline in overall water, bank, and animal and insect life? You may tell yourself it’s still beautiful and that ‘it’s OK’ that it’s not the way it used to be… but which way is the trend of change going? This small gradual loss of quality is called ‘Baseline Creep’ where the norm of what we expect changes. Come bear witness to baseline creep for the Black River where it runs through Poplar Bluff, MO. How do you feel about the changes you may notice?
