We spent a lovely weekend at O'Bannon Woods in the Harrison-Crawford Forest of Southern Indiana.  The camp was very clean.  The trails were a bit muddy from all the rain we've had this summer, but even slogging through the mud was a ton of fun. 

Usually the first of Aug. is so unbearably hot and humid, but we had terrific weather.

Here's Dwight in a dry creek bed.  We couldn't figure out where the water went.

A peaceful trail through the woods.

A beautiful picnic area overlooking the Ohio river.

Me and Dwight taking a break.

One trail took us out to the remains of an 1800s iron bridge over the Blue river (which was brown from all the rain.)  I walked out on it a little, but my buddy 'Rose' made me come back because it was making her nervous.

The only complaint I have is that the map for the horse trails is very hard to follow.  It is a black and white topographical map and all those squiggly lines look alike to me.  We spoke with the property manager, "Ranger Bob", who showed us a draft of a new map he is working on and it is going to be great!  Hopefully it will be ready by next spring.

Nice pictures!  Thanks for posting them.
