Fall Leaves & Color In The Ozarks & Buffalo River Area
Posted on October 20, 2007
Filed Under General |
Fall is an absolute splendid time of year along the Buffalo River or pretty much anywhere in the Ozark mountains of Arkansas. If you’ve never had a chance to visit the Ozarks during the fall season, I would highly encourage it! The air is cool and crisp and the colors of the leaves changing are gorgeous!
Since I do not actually live on the Buffalo, and don’t get to visit as much as I would like, I always try to get fall color updates through Tim Ernst’s online journal. Tim and his family live right in the heart of Buffalo River country, and Tim always keeps us up to date on conditions in the area and he also offers some spectacular photography! I encourage you to visit Tim’s website sometime and check out the different books and photos he offers for sale. You will be impressed!
The fall colors are running a bit late this year. Here it is the last half of October, and we’re just now beginning to see a “hint” of color change in the leaves. We’ve had several days recently in the lower to mid eighties. I will say that the humidity has been relatively low, so it hasn’t really felt that warm. We’re expecting this to be a beautiful weekend!
Even with some recent rainfall, the Buffalo River remains pretty low according to the “Buffalo National River Hydrologic Data” website. This is a great site to bookmark if you plan to float or vacation along the river.
The mornings have been cool and crisp recently, even though we’ve had some relatively warm days. This is great camping weather! I can think of nothing better than getting out of bed on a cool morning and enjoying a hot cup of coffee while sitting around a warm campfire and listening to the river roll by!
This is really a great time of the year to enjoy Arkansas. Whether you’re planning a camping or hiking trip, attending one of the many festivals in the Ozarks or just taking a weekend drive to enjoy the foliage, you just can’t go wrong!
