Black Friday = Ozark Jeepin' Friday

Submitted by omr_admin on Fri, 2009-11-27 20:27

My wife and I have spent many "Black Fridays" out in the woods of the Ozarks in our Jeep(s).  This year the only exception was that we were alone.   When we Jeep alone, we tend to get very conservative in what we try with our machine.   Can't imagine how expensive and difficult it would be to get a tow the day after Thanksgiving in the middle of nowhere.

What was the results of us staying near the roads more travelled?   Pretty darned good !

This is not to say that your average sedan could make it over the roads we traversed, but we certainly did not strain the 4WD capabilities of our well equipped TJ.  The view below is our jeep parked above a remote waterfall that any stock 4wd vehicle could drive to.

This final photo is great.   It is Twin Falls on Richland Creek.  Any car can be driven to this very same spot with no problem - although, like most everything else, it was a lot more fun in a Jeep !

We had a great time on Black Friday.   We spent 9 hours and a tank of gas in our Jeep.  We ate lunch in the middle of nowhere and saw very few other people - only saw some deer hunters.   A great day 4-Wheeling in the Arkansas Ozark Mountains.
