Old River Trail, Compton to Ponca (June, 2003)

 
The next morning we took our time breaking camp because we knew we had all day to tackle the remaining 6½ miles into Ponca.

The trail between Jim Bluff and Ponca is virtually flat and just like most of the ORT it crosses numerous times.  However, none of the crossings on this section are too treacherous.

One of them (pictured) provides a great view of Big Bluff, a several hundred foot high wall carved out by the river.
