    We camped there a few years ago. I love that campground and whole area.
    Pro tip: use that jetboil thing to boil water, and then you’ll have all you need in that area.

    I live in Northwestern Arkansas & have ridden roads like these all my life - they are beautiful - not much traffic & as twisty as can be... you ought to stop by Eureka Springs sometime. Heber Springs is worth a visit too. Peace.

    Thanks Tim. Arkansas is beautiful and has a nice state parks system. The park service puts out a brochure on motorcycling in AR. I did a 6-park circuit through western AR a few years ago and it was very nice. I was told the Buffalo National River region was cool.

    "Hey I'm lost", 🤣now that's when the adventure begins. Beautiful country, cool Aussie style river crossing, narrow back lane bridge, and your on dirt. Heaven can wait because Tim is at adventure motorcycle heaven. Nice Vlog Tim. I look forward to meeting you some day when our paths cross.
    Edit: TY for the book recommendation just got it on Audible and will give it a listen.

    Been on the paved roads many times. Highway 123 into Mt. Judea is called the Little Dragon. Very fun roads in that area with awesome scenery. Live close to the area and take full advantage of it. Great content, as always, Tim.

      My part of the state too! Ride the area with a old college buddy who lives in Dover. I live just south of Dardenelle. I enjoy riding the ozarks and the Ouachita National Forests. Check out the little Missouri falls in the Quachita’s! You’ve only scratched the surface of all the areas in Arkansas

    Wow, look at what you found while lost! Funny how it works out like that sometimes. Just incredible scenery.
    Might be worth downloading a free app (can't post it here because my comments keep getting removed) based on open street maps that let you download for offline use states/countries of your choice. I've tested it in airplane mode using turn-by-turn and recently while camping without cell service near the TN/NC border. It showed elevation, satellites in use, trails, FS roads, etc.
    In any event, thank you, as always, for sharing your journey. Ride safe; God bless.
