Westward View from Flatside Pinnacle (Click on photograph to purchase a print)
Flatside Pinnacle in the Flatside Wilderness area is a great hike, easy and quick. The reward is one of the best vistas of the Ouachita Mountains in Arkansas. This is great spot anytime of the year. This photograph was taken in late May just as the trees were getting their full green color. There are many small pine trees around the summit ridge that allow you to frame your photograph. In the far distance is Forked Mountain, a much more taxing climb which offers a great vista also.
