Get Tim Ernst's "Ouachita Hiking Trails" guidebook. It's the definitive guide for the OT.

That first section runs a little close to the highway in some spots for my taste and available water can be an issue although March is usually pretty wet here in Arkansas.

Also near that area is the Eagle Rock Loop which makes a good two night/three day trip however the water crossings can be a problem during wet times of the year.

Hope y'all have fun.
