SUMMARY:Group Hike on OHT Sylamore Section
DESCRIPTION:Trail:  Ozark Highlands Trail/Sylamore Section: “Grassy Hollow” to Spring Creek Trailhead\nDate: Saturday\, December 9\, 2023\nMeeting time: 9:30 a.m.  PLEASE BE PROMPT!\nMeeting place:  Intersection of Hwy 341/Push Mountain Road & Rand Road/FR 1118 (gravel). Rand Rd. is fairly close to (but across highway from) Moccasin Springs Trailhead. Pull off Hwy 341 onto Rand Rd. and wait there.  We’ll caravan to Spring Creek TH to leave some cars and then go to “Grassy Hollow” (very limited parking) to begin the hike.\nCo-Hike Leaders:  Kris McMillen and Dave Weiss\nDistance of hike: approx. 6-7 miles including about 2.5 miles “off-piste”! (Hey\, look it up—LOL!!)\nDifficulty of hike: Difficult with some bushwhacking and steep terrain\nLots of big bluffs and pretty stuff.  A good time to be in the woods!\n\nJake Anderson of Norfork Adventure Supply has kindly offered the use of the Group Campsite at Blanchard Springs Recreation area for the weekend of Dec. 9 for anyone of us to use free.  The campsite has been reserved for the trail runners who are participating in the adventure race that weekend.  I am not totally sure\, but I believe the shower house will be open for that weekend.  There are restrooms and a big pavilion.  I think it is Group Camp #1\, but either way it is the first one you come to down at Blanchard Springs camping area–the one that is by the big rock cave-looking area.  You’ll be sharing with the trail runners. If you want to use it\, just go there–no need to inform anyone ahead of time–just tell them you are with the OHTA hikers. If you have any questions\, please drop Kris an email at: krismcmillen7@gmail.com \n  \nWe will need to do a car shuttle on this hike. \nNon-aggressive dogs are OK to bring along on this hike; must be under voice control.  Some hikers don’t allow pets riding in their cars and some don’t mind\, so we’ll leave it up to you to work that out with the other hikers. \nPlease bring lunch\, water\, snacks\, hiking boots/shoes\, proper clothing for the temps.  Bring your own first aid supplies\, bug spray\, sunscreen or whatever you need for the day. \nWe are just some experienced hiking friends who are casually meeting at a trailhead to go hiking.  Hike at your own risk; everyone is responsible for their own self/well-being. No children under 15 allowed. This hike will be limited to 15 people. There will be an Ozark Highlands Trail Assoc. Liability Waiver for everyone to sign. \n  \nAFTER HIKE TAILGATE PARTY:  After the hike we will stay for a while at Spring Creek TH and have a little tailgate party.  Just bring some sort of snack (chips\, dip\, Hummus\, cookies\, whatever) to share\, and\, if you want\, a drink of your choice. You will need to put your items in the cars that are left at Spring Creek TH. \nAll hikes are weather-permitting. If you want to be a part of this hike\, please reserve your spot by emailing Kris McMillen at krismcmillen7@gmail.com or by texting her at 501-984-3774. Once you have confirmed your spot\, please be sure to check your email regularly in case there are any last minute changes. \nThis hike is very likely to fill up quickly\, so please be sure to contact Kris as soon as possible! \nOne last thing: The Spirit of Syllamo 100 is being run on December 9 on the same section of the OHT that participants in this hike will be using. Please be aware that you may encounter one or several of the  competition’s runners\, and when you do\, be sure to politely give them the right of way.

SUMMARY:OHTA Aid Station @ Spirit of Syllamo 100
DESCRIPTION:The Spirit of Syllamo 100 . . . what’s that?! \nWell\, the answer is very simple . . . It’s a true feat of strength and determination known by many of those who are not part of the trail running culture as pure insanity! It’s like running nearly the equivalent of four marathons back to back all on the same day (or within a 34-hour window of time)! And it is run on some of the most challenging terrain the South has to offer! Yes\, this is run not on paved streets but on trails\, and it is actually two races in one–35 and 100 miles each! \nThis year’s course begins with a 35-mile loop through the epic Syllamo Mountain Bike Trail. Those running the 100-mile race will continue on from there with an ‘Out & Back’ on the North Sylamore Creek Trail and the Ozark Highlands Trail. Runners who complete both routes are True Spirits of Syllamo!! \nSo what’s this about needing volunteers? Simply put\, Ozark Highlands Trail Association has been asked if we can come up with four to six folks–the more\, the merrier–willing to run the OHTA aid station located at the main start/finish of the race at Blanchard Springs Campground and Recreation Area. Here are some details: \n\nDay and Date: Saturday\, December 9\, 2023\nTime: approximately 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.\nLocation: Blanchard Springs Campground and Recreation Area\nStart time: 6 a.m. on Saturday\, December 9\, 2023\\nCutoff time: 4 p.m. on Sunday\, December 10\, 2023\nFood and water: Supplied by the event organizers\nFree camping: For those who want to be there for the entire event\, there is free camping for all volunteers at Blanchard Springs Campground on Friday and Saturday nights. As a volunteer\, you are not obligated to stay for the entire event\, but in case you’re inspired to do so\, it will not cost you to stay.\nContact person: Tiffany Mallard — volunteers can contact her by email at tmallard52@gmail.com or by phone at (479) 461-9796\n\nIf this sounds like something of which you’d like to be a part\, then please contact Tiffany Mallard as soon as possible. It will be a fantastic way to meet some very fine individuals\, rub shoulders with some of the world’s elite long-distance trail runners\, and promote the Ozark Highlands Trail!! \nWe hope to hear from you!
