Arkansas is Awesome!

Wanted to share some pics from a stop over in Arkansas on my last cross country tour.  A huge thanks to the Chappell's for taking me in, Cynthia for making me feel right at home down south and Charles for showing me some great spots and hikes in the Buffalo River Valley.  Can't wait to see ya'll again soon!

Some old farming buildings long since abandoned in the Buffalo River Valley.  

Blanchard Springs, in the Ozarks region, as fresh as it gets!

Getting a shower Arkansas style at Hemmed-in Hollow.  At 209 ft., its the tallest waterfall between the Rockies and Appalachia.

Floating down the Buffalo.

Catching a sweet storm over the rolling hills of the Ozarks.  

Foggy Night in the Grand Canyon

10,000' Up to 200' Below - White Mountains to Death Valley

 At 10,000 feet up in the White mountains, high above the tree line, these ancient bristlecone pines have been documented to live up 5,000+ years, making them the world's oldest living organism.   

 After running around through the Inyo forest for awhile, I headed down into the Eureka Valley, 

to visit the tallest sand dunes in the US, looming 700 ft over the dry lake they inhabit.

 The Racetrack Playa in Death Valley, unfortunately, the strange phenomena that occurs here with the sailing stones is nearly at an end due to assholes stealing souvenirs.

 

A long road home....
