OUACHITA TRAIL - FS ROAD 152/LAKE SYLVIA TO PINNACLE MOUNTAIN STATE PARK - MUD HIKE

 

My husband, Scotty, was our support on this hiking weekend.  We stayed at Lake Sylvia cabins again and were able to stay the entire weekend.  The only dining option we had was Hidalgo's Mexican Restaurant in Perryville.  There is also a Harp's Grocery Store in Perryville.

Christmas Fern - Arkansas Native Plant 

We had to change our dates for this hike due to heavy rains the previous week.  The flora and fauna loved all the rain, but we had to hike through a lot of mud during the weekend.  

Garter Snakesnakes are not poisonous. In fact, they can be a natural form of pest control, as they feed on small rodents such as mice and moles. If you're having a rodent problem, they can be of some help for you!

A tree stuck it tongue out at me and I was mooned by a rock.

The trees had a beautiful background.

I am holding Pinnacle Mountain and it is deceiving how out of reach it is at this point.  I have hiked to it twice and not sure I will do it again. We'll see.  

OKLAHOMA!!

Trail turns to old highway.

I was needed help to get to cabin after hiking all day and afterwards enjoying Razorback Pizza 

near Little Rock. It's a wrap.

We stopped at Stoby's Resturant for burgers on the way home.  I did finally get to try a piece 

of Possum Pie.
