The Dirt Road

Zach asked about the dirt road I mentioned.
When you go North on 103 (one of my favorite rides) towards Oark, Hwy 215 cuts off to the West a shortly before reaching Oark. Its a good highway that goes all the way to the pig trail. The only thing about it is the dirt portion. Its only about a mile at the most. I heard the reason its not paved all the way is because of a one lane bridge that would be too expensive to replace. I was told they were going to leave it dirt so people would slow down to the one lane. Who knows, anyway unless its been paved since 2006 then its still dirt. Its a good dirt road though, don't worry about it.

This is the bridge across Hwy 215 between Oark and the Pig Trail (Cass, Ar.). Hwy 215 follows the Mulberry River.
