Growing up in Arkansas, Jim Warnock found hiking to be essential to his physical health. His love of hiking has led him throughout Arkansas, Missouri, and the western states. He has thru-hiked the Ozark Highlands Trail and Ouachita Trail in Arkansas, as well as the John Muir Trail in California. Jim has written numerous articles on hiking and travel for Do South Magazine and other publications. When not hiking and writing about trails, Jim might be found maintaining his adopted 4-mile section of the Ozark Highlands Trail from Jack Creek to Dockery Gap.
