Today I head off with my brother for
Ozark National Forest. We will be up there for Friday, all of
Saturday and, most likely, most of Sunday. This will be my first
overnight hiking trip and I'm really freaking excited. Over the
course of my visit with my family down here I want to visit at least
one National Park in Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas. This will count as
my (first) Arkansas park.
I also plan to take a trip up to
Michigan's Ludington State Park, through Manistee National Forest
with my best friend in August when I get back, as well as my
trip home which will be hiking-packed, but we'll get to that later
because I'm still planning it and there is a lot I want to do!
I will share these few websites which
have proven themselves extremely helpful to be beginning my career as
a hiker. Also shown below are a few pictures of where I am going for
the weekend and some links for cool outdoor stuff I have found on
Pinterest.

I
only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till
sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in. - John Muir

is walking distance if you have the time. - Steven Wright
