This past Monday Betsy and I hiked the King’s Bluff Loop Trail in the Ozark National Forest in Arkansas. We had been there several years before, but it was good to go back, especially on a pretty February day under a beautiful blue sky.
The trail led to King’s Bluff Falls which actually had a fairly good water flow. It was only a trickle the last time we were there.
After leaving the waterfall the trail looped around to rock outcroppings that over some spectacular views of rock pedestals formed by erosion over millions of years. Many of the pedestals have varied-colored lichen growing on the rock faces.
The hike was a wonderful way to enjoy the marvelous beauty of God’s creation.

Just came from Betsy’s. She said it was cold but boy what a gorgeous blue sky you had!
Glad you had a wonderful time!

You are committed hikers to be out there in winter weather but it does look a nice sunny day for it. The rock formation and waterfall are beautiful so is the hiking partner.
