One of the interesting things about spending now a LOT of time in Northwest Arkansas is that we're getting to do some of our favorite hikes multiple times. Each of the seasons brings a different perspective on the hikes that makes them special in their own unique ways. Spring brings high water and gushing waterfalls, summer brings a host of wildflowers, autumn brings the beautiful fall foilage, and winter brings great views with the leaves not being on the trees and blocking views -- so things like bluff lines, and the river that are often not able to be seen from trails are viewable.
Winter hiking isn't something we'd done a lot of until recently, but he combination of great views, snowfall and ice have made winter one of our favorite times to hike in the Ozarks.
A couple of months ago we hiked down to check out the Glory Hole. You can find directions to the trail and on the trail here (as well as photos from our spring hike). But today I'm just going to share some pics of the trail during the winter with a light dusting of snowfall.
