Good morning from Hot Spring, Arkansas.
This is a view out the front door of our room. It is pretty much right on the lake. The weather is pretty cold right now and the lake is super low so not a lot of people around. This is our one room condo. Bed, TV that we couldn't figure out how to work, a kitchenette area and a small bath. It was all we needed for the weekend. Bed was comfortable and the shower was hot.
Breakfast at Cracker Barrel!
This was the third day and only a handful made it to breakfast! The Rest met us at the park.
Me and my sweetie.
Tauntaun flexing.
Heading out on the trail. We didn't get to the third badge of honor yesterday so went back to the Hot Spring ORV park to hit the last trail called Rubicon Ridge.
Beginning of trail on top of the mountain.
View were very pretty from the top.
This is so hard to see and it looks like flat ground but this was actually about a 30 degree decline. It was very steep.
Our satellite image maps that we use and record our trails riding on.
Just a neat picture of the Jeeps through the trees.
One of our friends getting wenched up after he got into a tough spot.
Over all Rubicon Ridge a level 3 and under normal circumstance wouldn't have been too challenging but after the rain fall a could of days ago, the rocks were super slippery and posed some challenges for us to get up. All in all it took 9 jeeps a little over 2 hours.
Next we headed to the scenic drive off of Bathhouse row to take everyone through that route.
Very pretty!
And we drove up to the tower and visited the gift shop. After that we headed back into town to park and grab some lunch.
Jeeps parked together in the parking garage.
Burgers for the win!
Bubba Lu's was very good. Good burgers, milkshakes and onion rings!
The original plan for today was to go overlanding through the national forest. Since we needed to get the last trail in at the park it was almost three o'clock before we headed out again.
We got a good three hours in and got to see some pretty sights.
At a little parking area that we flagged to come back and camp at one day.
A little turnaround where we all parked.
Overlook.
Love this pic! The Jeeps as the sun started setting.
It was a little chilly!
We got going on the train and it got dark so we headed back out but had a little night time driving.
Have never seen this before. Lost and Found Tree!
After we got back to town we headed back to Superior Bathhouse Brewery for another pretzel!
Pretzel and Beer Cheese dip. Best Pretzel ever.
And on top of that our server stayed 30 minutes after closing to give us a tour of the building.
Very neat!
And nothing better than ending the day at a DQ for some ice cream.
Heading home tomorrow!
