Yes Sir, that is pretty country!! I grew up in the mountains of NC and only after being moved away for 10 years or so, did I REALLY SEE what I had left...Growing up in country like that you take it for granted, because it was what you grew up seeing!! Enjoy and cherish all that you can, while you can...

Thanks Sackett, I lived away for three years in the Army, & one in Ca, but I was always drawn back to the Mts.
You hit the nail on the head, (while you can).

Pretty country. Sounds like it has a lot of interesting history as well.

I walked over & around 'Snake Mt' today, scared off a couple of buzzards, walked along horse trails, these were like the ones that the Dalton gang & Belle Starr traveled on their trips to Texas to steal horses.
They used to stop at a spring, now known as (Horse theif Springs), to water their horses, just South of this Mt.

It looks like a great place to hike, thanks for sharing. Brian C.

The Ouachita hiking trail runs along the mts from Ok to Ar, plus equestrian trails all around this area.
