Out There Thanksgiving list

Mount Mitchell. Climb it!

Mount Mitchell. Climb it!

Things to be thankful for, in terms of Oklahoma outdoors:

- A wonderfully diverse ecosystem, with prairie, forests, desert, hills and mountains in various corners of this state.

- A bunch of big lakes for boating, fishing and summer fun.

- Mountains in southwest Oklahoma that offer some of the best climbing in the Southwest. Thank you, God, for making the Wichita Mountains!

- Tree-covered hills and mountains in southeastern Oklahoma that hide trout streams and a bear population.

- Wildlife, from bald eagles to bison to elk… I could go on forever here.

- State parks that have a variety of things to do.

- Great days in four seasons to enjoy the outdoors.

- A healthy body that allows me to hike, climb, camp, fish and live out loud in Oklahoma’s outdoors.

- A growing number of people who can appreciate all these things as much as I do.

Happy Thanksgiving, folks! See you out on the trail…
