Ozark Highlands Trail trip

“Tax Day is over for this trip and you are either paid up or going to jail. Either way the heck with it all "LETS GO HIKING". Section 8 of the Ozark Highlands Trail is reportedly one of the more scenic on the trail system. The section is 20.9 miles long with several creek crossings. Water levels can make these crossings a safety concern. The starting point at Richland creek leaves the option of hiking section seven backwards if water levels are to high to safely cross the creeks on section 8.”

“The part of that section between Richland and Stack Rock is one of the most scenic on the entire OHT, IMO.

I may join y'all but since I'm also a kayaker, I'll have to wait to commit until I see what the whitewater situation looks like closer to the trip date. I can backpack anytime. I can only paddle when there's water.

“Perfect timing! I'll be out of jail then. Chili, maybe we can carpool, as long as you don't mind riding with an ex-felon. Ha! Ha!”

“So thats why you've been so scarce stomper!! they limit time on the puter in prison eh?”

“Time is limited, that's for sure.”

“No problem.”

“Sounds like a cool trip to me. I'm gonna try and make this one. Hopefully Buffalo Babe will be interested too.”
