Ozark Highlands Trail Maps Updated

The 17 map set of the Ozark Highlands Trail has been updated and Google Earth images for the entire trail have been added (go to http://www.ouachitamaps.com/OHT.html). I found some more sections that I had tracked over the last few years and we covered the 40 mile section between Ozone and Fairview in March 2008.

In addition, I came across Eric Strong’s GPS tracks from his 2004 through-hike and with his permission, used it to correct some of my map and compass errors. Though the new Lake Fort Smith section of the trail is now complete, but I don’t have that mapped yet.

As far as I know, this is the only map of the OHT available based on USGS 7.5 minute quads, and it’s free for you to download and print. Hope you find these useful.
