FALL FOLIAGE UPDATES



These pictures were taken October 22, 2012, as you can see the colors are turning but still not all the trees have changed. There is still lots of green trees out there. All the pictures were taken on the Talimena National Scenic Byway. The weather is overcast today. This cooler weather sure has made the leaves change. It looks like next weekend will be good and the next weekend should be great.

The Talimena Scenic Drive
Nature’s quiet solitude, the Talimena Scenic Drive, falls gently like a ribbon over the Winding Stair and Rich Mountains. Cresting the highest points between the Appalachians and the Rockies, the landscape appears almost untouched. One breathtaking panorama follows another along this 54 mile, National Designated Scenic Byway, as it winds along forested mountain tops between Talihina, Oklahoma and Mena, Arkansas. From this vantage point you can enjoy the four distinctive seasons of the Ouachita National Forest at their best. Read More
