City boy.
I grew up down there before the Talimena drive existed. The Runestone was called 'Rattlesnake Den' by the kids until a neighbor, Gloria Farley discovered it. The state park was just a place that teenagers parked. Great times!

Never have been, figure I should take the drive at least once.
It's pretty cool. I've been twice.

If you like to camp Cedar Lake is the place to go down there, just north of the Drive.

Agree. It a favorite place. Also, it's where the last two state record Bass have come from. The wife and I are camping at Natural Falls in about a week and the at Beavers Bend and Cedar Lake in November.
You older than dirt.
Agree. By the time Talimena Drive was dedicated I had already had three overseas tours and two kids.
Can you post a few? Nothing better than aspens in the fall!
General rule, which will vary a little bit, is first weekend of muzzleloader deer season. Still a bit early but close.
Frost is what causes leaves to turn I think? It's a short window from when leaves die and when the wind, and rain, strip the trees. I know some states issue fall color updates. Virginia, and Tennessee, do, I don't know if Oklahoma or Arkansas do this or not. Check with the state tourism dept.
