Here is a pro for you snake chasers: Poteau mountain has lots of rocky areas that look like excellent rattler dens. Just sayin.  big_smile

There certainly are some good looking places on Poteau  but not a real good place to stay. At least not that I know of. Any ideas?

Ever wonder why conservatives are called the right and liberals are called the left?

There is a very nice campgroung at lake hinkle. It is a USFS area and is as good if not better than most state parks. It has hot showers, great campsites and loads of shoreline for snake, turtle and frog hunting.

Re: Future AHS Field Trips - Location Discussions

First off I'm sorry I haven't been on here much lately to update everyone. The trip planning is still happening and I hope to post an official announcement in the very near future. There are still a few details I need to work out, but I'm optimistic that It'll all be worked out very soon.
