In March 2025, we ran Forest Road 5741 to Pine Ridge Road to Big Piney Creek Road, starting right off Hwy 123. The full drive took us about 30 minutes — and that included stopping to check out several dispersed campsites along the way. (Our YouTube video is sped up 2x so you can see the entire trail without committing to the full half hour.) ️ Trail Stats...]]></description><link>https://www.emptynestadventureproject.com/post/full-trail-guide-5741-to-pine-ridge-road-ozark-national-forest-march-2025</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69a5f69194843aee687f4ab6</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Mar 2026 14:02:40 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/2cf517_f31c2257110d4bacb93f2ca4e1c243e0~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_720,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Trisha Moore</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jeep Adventure to Carwash Falls]]></title><description><![CDATA[Car Wash Falls is a classic Jeep destination you'll want to check out. The area is really cool with big rocks and a creek along the side. This trip was in February of 2024. We took Highway 123 (the "Arkansas Dragon") to Big Piney Creek Rd 5881 and crossed over Hurricane Creek to get there. Then, we turned around and went back the way we came in. We weren't very familiar with the area at the time and didn't want to get too far into any trail systems since the sun was starting to set and we...]]></description><link>https://www.emptynestadventureproject.com/post/jeep-adventure-to-carwash-falls</link><guid isPermaLink="false">699f4355bf1bf6f6a2a77706</guid><pubDate>Wed, 25 Feb 2026 19:28:15 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/2cf517_bc82fa32763d45e69c7d00425ba6a0d1~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_720,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Trisha Moore</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Off-Roading Adventure at Broken Bow Lake: Finding Trails and Scenic Spots [Jeeping]]]></title><description><![CDATA[A few years ago we visited the Broken Bow Lake area in Oklahoma for the second time. The first time was a family vacation and we stayed at a cabin for about 5 days to unwind, play games, eat some good food, and fish. This time, we brought our Jeep and attempted to find some off-road trails to try out. Using OnX Offroad, we were able to find some fun areas to explore. We started off on a trail that was extremely rocky. We found it on the OnX Offroad app, but be sure to cross-reference with an...]]></description><link>https://www.emptynestadventureproject.com/post/off-roading-adventure-at-broken-bow-lake-finding-trails-and-scenic-spots-jeeping</link><guid isPermaLink="false">698fb8a9a816bdca356da469</guid><pubDate>Sat, 14 Feb 2026 00:23:19 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/2cf517_432532909d6b4203aa0069041cb03bd5~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Trisha Moore</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
