Our highest peak is a stunner any time of the year, and winter brings an entirely new level of breathtaking beauty. After a snow (or even dusting), Mount Magazine State Park is a wintery dream! Arkansas’ seasons are always a bit wild and unpredictable, but at times, Winter brings in the most spectacular snowy wonderland that you can imagine. Let’s look through these snowy scenes and hope we can have another white winter soon:
Arkansas’ winters are rather inconsistent, but the beauty of Mount Magazine is evergreen!

Heavy snows make the mountain look like something from a postcard.

This chilly adventure provides endless photo opportunities.

These pretty scenes aren’t just during the record-breaking snows, either.
