Sylamore Trail Trees?
We decided to get out Easter afternoon to visit the western part of the
county to explore and look for thong trees before the foliage bursts
forth in brilliant fashion. We were delighted to find several trees
while doing so! Three massive trees we found near Sylamore are featured
below. Also included is a photo of the tree that started our journey
down the road of studying these trees...one that was tragically cut down
a few years ago not long after we discovered it. Whether these trees
are legitimate Native-American trail trees or not, it's important we get
the word out so landowners might think twice before destroying these
amazing living artifacts. A short video is also included.

I know that this is a common claim people make around the world, but to me the Ozarks of Arkansas truly is God's Country! This site will be dedicated to showing anyone interested--Sunday motorists to fair-weather cyclists--some of the hidden treasures in the county they drive through.
Over the past several years, with the explosion of the popularity of custom car-clubs and motorcycle enthusiasts, Izard county has seen a parade of people from outside the area coming to enjoy the panoramic views from the comfort of their chosen mode of pleasurable transportation. Many, I'm absolutely sure, drive by sights that are easily accesible and not far off the highway never even knowing those sights are there. This blog will give anyone searching for information before they visit the area a way to know where some of those places are.
