We were rained out last fall, but let’s try this spring. We will gather at the Ozark Campground on the Buffalo, north of Jasper, for a car camp. Some of us will come up Friday night, the rest on Saturday. Town is 10 minutes away, so you don’t have to cook if you don’t want to. There are two planned day hikes on the BRT. The 1st from Ozark to Pruitt (2.6 m) and then the Mill Creek Loop (1.5 m) on Sat. at 10. On Sunday we will hike from Ponca to Steel Creek (2.6 m). If you just want to hang out in camp, that’s fine too! Come have some fun and fellowship. Look for the Banner in the campground.

Spend a spring day walking a5.5 mile loop on a historic bridge and having lunch on Beale Street. Its been one of our favorite hikes, even though its urban. We start from the W. Memphis end of the bridge and cross over the Big Muddy then on to Beale for lunch. We meet at the trail head off Exit 1 of I-55 in W. Memphis. Take I-55 to Memphis. After exiting, take a left to Dacus Lake Rd. to the parking. Be there by 10:45. It is a 2 ¼ hour drive from Little Rock. Hike begins at 10:45, bring good shoes and some water.

We tried last fall, let’s try this spring to do a two night float on our favorite river. Stewart Noland will be leading a two night/ three day float on the river over Memorial Day weekend. We will announce the stretch we’ll float just before or at the May Chapter meeting. Stay tuned or check the Calendar section on Ozarksociety.net for updates. Bring your own boat and meals. Rentals will be available. What better way to spend a Holiday week end than a couple nights on the Buffalo.
