Almost a couple of weeks ago now I was down in Arkansas for an overnight. The mission was to be a quick in and out hike to the Big Bluff/Goat Trail 500′ above the Buffalo River’s beautiful horseshoe bend (the Buffalo is one of America’s Wild and Scenic Rivers, and it certainly does not disappoint). Three miles in to the bluff and waiting for sunset paid off. I initially went with the priority being night sky photos. The clouds moved in preventing me from any starry skies, but sure made for an amazing sunset. It made the hike back out in the dark well worth it!

Not sure where I’ll be heading next. I’ve got some ideas but stay tuned!
