Welcome to my photo tour of the Ozark region page. Since 2003 I have been taking amatuer candid photos of this very interesting and somewhat undiscovered part of the United States. As time has past our site has grown and changed as have my skills with both buiding web pages and taking photos! Thanks to a photography lesson with Glenn Wheeler, and a camera upgrade I almost take decent photos now! Thank you for all the wonderful e-mail over the years expressing your delight with the web site.

Winter 2006 Lost Valley, Ponca Arkansas

The Lost Valley is one of the most popular tours in the Buffalo River region. The trail makes a good afternoon round trip hike with lots to see for the whole family. A wide and easy to walk trail is present for most of the hike. You'll explore through dense scenic forest, moss covered rocks, grey cliffs and follow a stony creek to unexpected groto that's fed by a water fall. Climb up the waterfall and through a cave to explore the other side. You will probably want to bring a walking stick and a flash light. One of the most spetacular features of the hike is a cavern cut underneath a very tall cliff.
