Buffalo National River - September 17, 2021

Updated  Sept 26, 2021

The blazing heat of summer seems to have passed and we are now in our fall season. I am looking forward to some great fall colors along with more temperate weather. We are blessed with not much in the way of  drought, but about 20% of the state is  in  the abnormally dry category. Northwest Arkansas however is still OK. The river is low  but that is normal for this time of year. I took a drive down to the Little Buffalo to visit a friend and then decided to take an extended drive home.

Situated mainly within three states, the 60,000 square mile Ozark Plateau stretches from eastern Oklahoma to southern Missouri to northern Arkansas. The Ozark Mountains, rising to a height of 2,560 feet in Arkansas' Boston Mountains, represent the largest area of highlands between the Appalachians and the Rockies. These rolling hills and low mountains offer rugged terrain, eroded by water from springs and rivers flowing on a journey to the Mississippi River.

Sparsely populated, the Ozark region is unknown to many people, conjuring up scenes of pioneer cabins among the vast hardwood tree cover, where life takes on a slower pace. It is indeed a place where you can get glimpses of an earlier way of life, but it also holds many beautiful, scenic discoveries within its rolling landscape.
