yo ben. i couldn't let everyone get in on the commision check the state of arkansas cuts for selling us to out of towners without my pitch, so here goes.
colorado is one of my favorite states, although i have to say that i'd still choose a good ozark creeking day with a few of our fellow homies over any other place I can think of. I'm a little biased, but I still don't think you'll regret being in Arkansas.
The Ozarks and Ouachitas offer a lifetime of nooks, crannies, caves, creeks, peaks, wildlife, fishing, kayaking (creeking and playing) and gettin' down hillybilly style in a holler. We also do it in a more lush environment with less ruggedness and remoteness relative to the Rockies. Add less ruggedness and an often more intimate feeling, and you can't beat the ozarks for several days after a good rain.
You can't schedule our whitewater on your calendar, but you can sure get plenty if you live around here and have any flexibility workwise throughout the year.
Pretty soon, you'll be rockin' a worn out set a 'ralls, corncob pipe in mouth. Smilin' a big gap toothed Ozark smile! (The chewing tobacco that goes with the lifestyle is hell on dental work!)
And my final point, our mountains may be worn and short, but they're older and smarter too!
peace, cya when it rains.
