PTO Hill

This trail descends directly toward the Arkansas River and typically provides access to a sandbar at the water’s edge. However, during mapping, the water level was too high to confirm the sandbar’s condition or visibility. Local information suggests the sandbar is normally exposed, but rising water can completely cover it. Because the final approach includes a short, steep hill leading down to the river, it’s important to assess conditions before committing. If the sandbar is submerged, turning around or backing up the hill is going to be the best option. Always check water levels first to avoid getting trapped at the bottom.
