Description
From: Hobbs State Park – Conservation Area Contact: 479-789-5000 Media Release October 27, 2018 Hobbs State Park Partners with the Photographic Society of Northwest Arkansas to Offer a Free, Public, “Lingering Fall Color Photo Walk” Hobbs State Park enjoys a working partnership with the Photographic Society of Northwest Arkansas. Coming soon will be a Fall Photography “Photo Walk” led by Cleeo Wright, nature photographer and other members of PSNWA on Saturday, November 3rd beginning at 7:00am. The theme of this event is “Lingering Fall Colors”, focusing on the final changing colors of the foliage at Hobbs State Park. Bring whatever camera gear you are comfortable with, be it a full-frame DSLR, or a smartphone. If you are familiar with the manual settings of your camera, and like fall color/nature photography – this photo walk is for you. All participants will meet at the parking lot of the Historic Van Winkle and Sinking Stream Trailheads, to begin the photo walk promptly at 7:00am, concluding as the morning light begins to shift. The photo walk will take place rain or shine. Overcast and wet mornings create some of the best photographic Fall Color opportunities. The trails are described as “easy” in difficulty, yet it is suggested to bring sturdy shoes suitable for hiking. Sinking Stream Trail has one small elevation. The Historic Van Winkle Trail is wheelchair accessible. Each trail is 0.5 miles in length. Traveling east out of Rogers on Hwy. 12, about 10 miles from downtown, is a paved parking lot on your right with restrooms. This is the site of both the Historic Van Winkle and Sinking Stream trailheads. If you are a seasoned photographer, or just beginning, you will not want to miss the chance to attend this lovely photo walk of Lingering Fall Color photography. Where: Parking lot on Hwy. 12 at the beginning of the Historic Van Winkle and Sinking Stream Trailheads.
