A photo story

Mount Magazine, Arkansas

Laura and I at the Signal Hill sign on Mount Magazine, the high point of Arkansas, in April 2025. The sign reads 2,753 feet. It was beautiful weather, a clear, chilly evening already down in the upper 40s, with almost no wind.

I believe this was the one with the terrible view. The summit itself is just trees everywhere, no real lookout from the sign, which is kind of funny for a state high point. I had first come up Magazine in October 2023, and this was Laura's turn at the same sign.

It was a short little hike too, which is part of the charm. You walk up, you stand in the woods at the marker, and you get the photo.

The lodge at the top was the cool part. That's The Lodge at Mount Magazine, in Mount Magazine State Park. If you want a view, that's the better bet. The high point is for the sign.
