weekend in lost valley

On the way drove to Buffalo river, we can see the beauty of wild elk. They were just simply enjoy thr sun and the peace of Buffalo rive.

It's a one and half hours drive from fayetteville to Buffalo river,very nice place to spend weekends and spring break. Actually we plan to go a 2-day canoe trip and camp around the river in the spring break.

The trail begins at the Lost Valley campground and terminates in a cave 1 ½ miles up the valley. Features include waterfalls, a cascading creek, towering cliffs, a large bluff shelter, a natural bridge, spring wildflowers and a hardwood forest containing American Beech. The cave itself is a tight squeeze for approximately 200 feet ending in a large room with a 35-foot-tall waterfall. Clark Creek, like most tributaries to the Buffalo River, tends to dry up or go underground during the late summer and early fall of most years. The available brochure is self-guiding. The first mile to Eden Falls is level and easy going. The trail then climbs steeply to the mouth of the cave. To explore the cave is the most fun part that we did in this trip.I've being doing the "spider man walk" in the cave, trying very hard to blend over my body to slowly move in inside of the cave.
