1. Ozark Folk Center State Park Mountain View Arkansas
The Ozarks, also referred to as the Ozark Mountains and Ozark Plateau, is a physiographic region in the U.S. states of Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Kansas. The Ozarks cover a significant portion of northern Arkansas and southern Missouri, extending from Interstate 40 in Arkansas to the suburbs of St. Louis. A portion of the Ozarks extends into northeastern Oklahoma and southeastern Kansas.

Mammoth Spring is a large, first magnitude karst spring that arises in the Ozark Plateau within the state of Arkansas. It is the largest spring in Arkansas and the third-largest spring within the Ozark Plateau region behind Big Spring and Greer Spring. Mammoth Spring is the seventh-largest natural spring in the world. The spring's outlet pool is contained entirely within Mammoth Spring State Park.

6. Buffalo National River Harrison
The Vincennes Trace was a major trackway running through what are now the American states of Kentucky, Indiana, and Illinois. Originally formed by millions of migrating bison, the Trace crossed the Ohio River near the Falls of the Ohio and continued northwest to the Wabash River, near present-day Vincennes, before it crossed to what became known as Illinois. This buffalo migration route, often 12 to 20 feet wide in places, was well known and used by American Indians. Later European traders and American settlers learned of it, and many used it as an early land route to travel west into Indiana and Illinois. It is considered the most important of the traces to the Illinois country.It was known by various names, including Buffalo Trace, Louisville Trace, Clarksville Trace, and Old Indian Road...

Showing campsites at Horseshoe Bend Campground

So about my dog...

At about 2:40 into the video, my dog makes an appearance at the worst time. We had him in the car for most of our trip and he was anxious to get out. Nobody else was at the campground at the time I made the video, so we let him wander to stretch his legs.

Later that evening, someone else brought a dog and didn't know we had one since we had put Bear in the tent. The other dog came running up to our tent trying to get to our dog. I was trying to zip up the tent but both dogs were trying to sniff each other. There was not hostility on either dog's part and the owner felt bad about his dog coming into our camp. No harm, no foul.

We did keep him on a leash once I finished filming the video for the rest of the time we were there. But yeah, he should have been on a leash at all times, like the sign says.

Exploring Arkansas November 2019

Bull Shoals-White River State Park offers some of the best snorkeling opportunities in Arkansas. Park interpreters provide gear and instruction to explore first-hand the lake's fish, rocks and plants. The Beckham Creek Cave House was first featured on Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. But, there's another side to it – the wild side, which has uncovered some unknown cave species within its depths. The Strawberry River has one of the greatest concentrations of aquatic biodiversity in North America. The stream's upper section has been designated as an Arkansas Natural and Scenic River. It's also a Preserve with The Nature Conservancy, whose motto is –'Saving The Last Great Places On Earth.'

Horseshoe Bend Overlook

Horseshoe Bend is the name for a horseshoe-shaped meander of the Colorado River located near the town of Page, Arizona. It is located slightly downstream from the Glen Canyon Dam and Lake Powell within Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, about four miles south of Page. Accessible via a ¾-mile hike from U.S. Route 89, it can be viewed from the steep cliff with a breathtaking 1,000 foot drop.
