    WOW, this park is stunning. I love the paths beside the valley with the stone fence. I really like that the new visitor center maintains an appearance similar to that of the old CCC buildings. Being up high above the clouds is really amazing as well.

    I'm thrilled you love my home state. I hope to buy a fifth wheel in the next year. Your video on backing one up was quite educational. Im glad Petit Jean has some pull though sites. That will be nice to start with lol.

    Love that the sites appear to be pretty well spaced apart. I hate being on top of other people in campgrounds. Petit Jean is on our list of places to visit at some point. We think Arkansas it a beautiful state and always enjoy visiting when we get the chance.

    Hi friends. We've not been to Arkansas but Stout's Point looks like a cool area to explore. Mather Lodge is gorgeous. Taking in the views over breakfast seems like an incredible experience. That Petit Jean story is intriguing. With the gravesite there, you've got to believe there's at least some truth to it. We have some videos you would enjoy. Come check them out when you get a chance.

    • @SunsetSeekers
      @SunsetSeekers  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've used a number of different editing software suites since starting my channel a few years ago but I have now gravitated towards Filmora 9. I find it to be the easiest to use and has more than enough features to suit my needs. No, we don't have ebikes, there are just lots of hills up there at Petit Jean! LOL! I like using footage where we are coasting down a hill (the footage just looks more engaging to me). Thanks for watching!!

    The legend of Petit Jean is nonsense, of course. The story is loosely based on the murder of a French Trapper, "Little John(Petit Jean) by local Indians. But Petit Jean Mountain is a Astounding natural wonder.
