Petit Jean Mountain has some of the best vistas of the Arkansas River Valley.  The area known as Petit Jean’s Grave site has a great view due east and southeast.  You can catch a wonderful sunrise from here also.  The valley drops of very steeply here and is over 200 feet below the tops of the rocks.  The best way to reach this part of Petit Jean Mountain is to drive up Hwy 10 and turn off at Opello.  The drive from there is a very beautiful drive as you approach the mountain and then start the climb to the summit.
