The National Park Service is considering buying the 26-acre Rocky Ford rapids site on the Niobrara River in Nebraska to preserve public access for float trips and kayaking. The area is a popular take-out point and attracts about 75,000 visitors annually. The current owner, Brad Arrowsmith, is open to selling the property, but details on the purchase price and timeline are still uncertain.
