Sam's Throne Area, Arkansas (November, 2001)

Sam's Throne and the climbing areas around it are characterized by the sandstone walls that make for such good climbing.  The areas are in the Ozark National Forest and are not "user-friendly."  The US Forest Service manages forest and not tourist like the National Park Service might.  This doesn't mean that it isn't an excellent climbing place, though.

I had been to the area once before several years ago and with a group lead by someone who was an avid climber.
