Where we are headed eventually! |
Our task for the day |
There is still color in the Ouachitas |
Not sure this guy is too happy with
our arrival? |
Ready to find some waterfalls first |
So off we go.... |
Hope Dave is not planning on wearing
this? |
We continue our search... |
Ah, Forked Mt. Falls |
Looking up Cedar Creek |
Looking down Cedar Creek |
....and where do we find Paula? |
....she is way up there! |
....and now a few more! |
Forked Mt. Falls |
Char is stuck on a rock! |
Gloria is stuck on the same rock! |
Mary is going to get stuck on the same
rock! |
We may never get out of this place? |
Out looking for another waterfall.... |
I think that is Twist Cascade |
Not much water on Little West Branch |
They made it across the roaring
mighty Twist Cascade...it was close! |
Snack time..... |
How to take a good photo 101.... |
Bruce from China and UCA |
Vera (China), Nancy (China) and Lila
(?) |
Paula |
Chris |
Linda and Mary |
Bill |
Lila |
We did this a lot today..... |
In the middle of nowhere, we found
this...
I am sure it was Indians? |
Our lunch spot at Cedar Creek Falls |
Indeed, it is lunch time. |
Someone lost their shoe in the creek? |
|
|
|
|
|
We make it out, now time to go tackle
the mountain. |
Couldn't make it up the road with all
our
vehicles, so we shuttled. |
This is where we would leave some of
them. |
Parked, not up to the top! |
It was like this the whole way.... |
If you could read her mind! |
Looking back, half way up |
Almost to the saddle.... |
Starting to get a little breezy up
here! |
Tammie is almost there..... |
Now for the fun part...straight UP! |
We made it to the TOP of Forked Mt. |
Linda brought these three students
from UCA |
Gloria, our oldest.....?
(Someone get her a comb!) |
Take all the pictures you want....we
ain't coming
back. At least this year! |
Believe it or not, the wind was not
blowing
on top...but it was everywhere else! |
When you go UP, you have to go DOWN! |
The shorter knob on Forked Mt.
We did the higher knob! |
Here they come... |
It was harder coming down then going
up! |
Tammie now has bragging rights...
she made it to the top! |
More scrambling..... |
Where we just came from..... |
Made it....! |
Talking it over....who bragged the
most? |
Somewhere through those pine trees is
Forked Mt. (Conquered) |
Lila had a good time...the rest? |
This is picture that Danny Ray Owens
took of us two years ago from 2 1/2 miles away. We were there
again today....but nobody took our picture! |
