Thank You for all the work that you guys (and gals too) do. It takes A LOT of work to keep trails going. Growing up in Southwest Oklahoma, the first trail I did was the Butterfield, when I was 12, then I did the Winding Stair when I was 14. I had to come way over here, because there are no trails in Oklahoma (except the Western OT). There use to be a 60 mile that followed the Arkansas river, but it has all grown up and vanished because there is no one that works it. Thank you again for giving people the priviledge to go hike Caney Creek.

Dwight,

A lot of people from Texas hike this trail. I wish more AR folks did! You have all kinds of possiblities. On trail, crosscountry. Waterfalls you name it, it is just a beautiful place to visit. As you see I keep coming back!

Thanks,

OH

Your pictures sure makes it hard for a tired mind to build another lesson and walk into a classroom full of teenagers. Even good ones.

I sure know what you mean! I live just below this area and I am getting up there more and more. We are out next week on winter break and we will do some more work. I will be thinking about you! Very Happy
