WHERE: here at Wild Ozark by the gate
WHEN: from 8:00 am – 10:00 am (hot weather schedule)
11:30 – 2 pm (cold weather schedule)
Email me for directions to get here. Our road is 6 miles of dirt, but it’s in relatively good shape and as long as your vehicle has good tires (NO low-profile), you should be fine with either a car, SUV, or truck.
