Thanks for the awesome write up. Looks like a great trip.

Fellow okie here... where the bridge was out, although you got a good detour and saw a better road, the new bridge was just a little farther down the road from the old one. Maybe a mile. Loved the report, used to live in Tahlequah.

Interesting, I scanned my maps for a nearby bridge but must have missed it. Good to know! Glad you enjoyed it

It would have been built within a couple of years of when you were there. Old bridge was Combs Bridge. Spent many an evening watching sunset over the river from that old bridge.

Great write up. I’d like to do this trail.

I am hoping to go to the Wichita Mountains in a couple weeks. Anything I need to make sure I don't miss? Main plan is hiking and mountain biking. Of course I will hit Mount Scott. Nothing else definitive at this point.

Or I will hit something in the Ouachita Mountains in SE OK.

I haven't been back to the Wichita area but have friends that have camped/backpacked and they seemed to really enjoy it. The Meers store has an excellent reputation for food but I haven't been through there while they were open. I have spent time in the Ouachita area hiking out of Talihena Winding Stair campgrounds along the Ouachita trail. Both areas were very beautiful but I don't know the rules about bikes in either area.
