April in the Ozarks is a time of leafy green bursts, wildflowers peaking through leaf litter, and birds singing spring arias. It’s the perfect time to set off with your BlakeSt friends on an adventure that combines rolling forest terrain with varied scenery. Imagine the morning light filtering through oak and hickory trees, listening to warblers and woodpeckers as you follow the gentle ridge, pausing partway through for a glimpse over forested valleys toward Beaver Lake, and soaking up the fresh spring air.
