Sam's Throne, Arkansas (October, 1997)

To get to "The Throne," you head through the small town of Mt. Judea (pronounced Judy) and turn south on Arkansas State Highway 123.

In 1997 State Highway 123 was a gravel road with steep and sharp switchbacks.  In 2000 the road was paved but the switch backs still remain.

After a long day of climbing a greasy cheap dinner awaits in Mt. Judea at the Eagle Valley Cafe (in 1997 it was called Herb's.)
