Some of the most beautiful places in the Ozarks are also its best-kept secrets. In Ozark Hideaways, lifetime hiking and fishing enthusiast Louis White reveals the hidden splendors of twenty-seven of these out of the way places with this practical guidebook for the weekend adventurer.
Book after book has been written about popular spots for canoeists, fishermen, boaters, and campers who don't mind company. But little has been written about places less traveled. If you prefer intimacy and solitude to elbow-bumping, people filled tourist areas, this book is for you.
White reveals the peaceful beauty of these secluded waterways, from swirling rapids to deep. shaded pools, from gushing waterfalls to little-known natural bridges and stone columns. There are icy springs. unfrequented mills, and cliffs dotted with caves for the more adventuresome to explore. White offers descriptions of the plants. animals. and geology you may encounter on these day trips as well as the best spots to fish. Dozens of beautiful color photographs will entice even the fainthearted to explore these hidden wonders. The book is made especially useful by detailed road information, directions to parking and camping spots, and discussions of proper equipment and techniques
If you have grown tired of seeing more people than trees when you go hiking, if the streams you wade have more lures than fish, let Louis White introduce you to his spectacular Ozark Hideaways. Beautiful scenery, good fishing, and peace and quiet are waiting for those willing to seek out nature's rich rewards.
