Couldn't Do Without

Summer 2002 my fiancee and I hiked the OHT and made all plans after referring to this trail guide. We had never been to AR before and enjoyed the OHT. This guide was indispensible.

The Authoritative and Only Guide to the OHT

If you want to get the most out of your Ozark Highalnds Trail experience then you need to make sure you have a copy of this book. Written by the man who started it all it is the authoritative and only guide book for the OHT. I have hiked the entire 165-mile trek the last 2 consecutive seasons and I still would not want to be on the trail without it.

Don't hit the trail without it!

Be sure you've looked at this book before you make plans to hit the Ozark Highlands Trail. It helps with planning for the trip, with detailed mileage, ratings, etc. On the trail I kept it within easy reach the whole trip. Great detailing and gives info on the things worth seeing *off* the trail, as well, a real plus. Gives mileage as to how far off the trail a waterfall is, etc. OHT Bible, indeed!
