The Ozark Society’s Highlands chapter will lead an organized Christmas Day hike at the Lake Wilson trail in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The hike will be an easy one, just 2.5 miles, perfect for the whole family plus it starts at 1:30pm which means plenty of time to open presents beforehand. This seems like a great tradition and it’s the perfect opportunity to test out all the new hiking gadgets you get from Santa

Speaking of Santa, the big guy himself was spotted outside San Luis Obispo doing a little rock climbing last week. We even spotted him out on the mountain bike trail as well, who knew Santa was such an extreme sports nut?

Finally, for those in the Fayetteville, AR area, the Ozark Society will also be hosting a New Year’s Eve campout, another great excuse to get outdoors and use your new camping gear during the holidays!
