Little Missouri River
Hike along and above the Little Missouri River near Winding Stairs, overnight aborted5/11/18
The area around the Winding Stairs rapid on the Little Missouri River is a unique location within the Ouachita National Forest. After a fine breakfast at the OK Cafe in Glenwood I headed for said location and was within the forest by 7:30 with 68° and partly cloudy skies. I crossed, ascended, traversed, descended, crossed and repeated. Many sights were seen. My chosen location to camp did not meet my expectations so by 5:30 with 82° and sunny skies I exited the forest. This hike was not a complete failure as many wonders were discovered. Distance travelled equaled 6.4 miles.
