Great Day Hiking

Tuesday Mar 23, 2010

Woke up at Lake Catherine State Park and immediately got to hiking. Though, due to fog, we got started later than planned. We spent 3 hours exploring the white and red trails – with backtracking (apparently my chauffeurs’ GPS – whatever that is – was acting up) we covered about 7 miles. The trails are fairly rugged for marked trails...

Arkansas Hiking Time

Friday Mar 19, 2010

We will stop there on way back for some more tasty hame. We were planning on spending the night at Tyler Bend in Buffalo National River Park, but were disappointed that dogs are not welcome on the hi...
