Spring Break Part 2- Petit Jean State Park

Lindy is also on spring break this week, but she had to stay a few days and work, so we decided to go visit her and take her to Petit Jean, which is only about 30 minutes from where she goes to school (Arkansas Tech).

This is the first overlook on the way into the park:


This is the swing on the front porch of the cabin we rented. The cabin was really nice; it had a big fireplace, front porch with swing, and a good place behind it for rock climbing and exploring. You could walk right out of the door and start hiking the Cedar Falls trail.



Luke playing behind the cabin:





This is the Bear Cave hike, a short hike that we all went on.






videos from the bear cave hike




Amy took Avery back to the car and Lindy, Luke and I took a different trail that went back to the lodge.



Next we went to main overlook of Cedar Falls.

Rock House Cave:




We also hit some more geocaches in the park, one that was in a birdhouse and one that was way up in a tree that you had to let down with a pulley system.




We did all of the short hikes and overlooks, played on the playground, went to the lake, and then Luke and I played catch before dark.












We saved the Cedar Falls hike for this morning, and it was awesome. Details and pics in the next post.

Ok after an hour working on these posts, I hope I get some comments. I promise I will start leaving comments on your blogs! This thing is not very fast or user friendly.

If I commented every time I looked at your blog you would have a lot of comments. I keep coming back especially to look at the videos again and again.
