There are three hikes along the Buffalo River that I consider to be difficult. Hemmed-In Hollow, a short steep hike. Indian Creek, a long hike with about 10 water crossings, a bluff to climb, and a ledge wak, then this one, Big Bluff. Also going by the name Center Point and the Goat Trail. A 7ish mile hike, 3 going down hill on the way in, and 3 going up hill on the way out. If you go to the very end of the bluff and up a little, then it’s closer to 9 miles.
This picture shows the first view you see when you make it to the bluff. The River is about 300 feet below you with 200 feet of rock above you. On the river banks there is a cabin. YOu can see the tin roof between the trees. This cabin belonged to Granny Henderson. It’s two stories and she lived there until the River became a national Park. She was given the choice to continue living there, but she would have to get rid of her livestock. Well that was how she lived, she had to have her livestock to survive. So she moved and lived with her sister who lived just over the hill.
During the warmer months the river is full of kayaks, you can hear them all the way on the bluff. Hear the bottom of the kayak scrabing aginst the gravel banks, and people shouting and talking. You can’t make out what they are saying, but you can hear them. At night there is onelight. Very far away on the distant hills to the left. Othe than that light there are no other signs of civilization, no roads, no lights, no noise, and very few planes.
All of the prints will have a small white border, which will not be seen when matting/framing.
This is available with or without a gray matt.
With the matt, you will need a frame that is one size bigger. For an 8x10 print, you will need an 11x14 inch frame. An 11x14 print will need a 16x20 inch frame.
All of my prints are archival inkjets, with ink rated to last without fade for 100 years in proper storage or display. The sun will fade prints if they are not protected and extreme impurities in the air.
The frame is not included.
Glass is not included.
Each print will be signed. Either on the matt or on the print, with silver ink.
This is not ready to hang, you will either need a frame or some other kind of hanger, this is either just the print or the print with a matt that will fit a frame. If you buy one with the matt then you will need to take the matt that comes with the frame out. No additional backing is needed, but if the frame has room for it, it will make the print more stable.
When selecting shipping you have to select the option that is for PRINT ONLY. It is clearly labeled. If you selected any other option then I can not ship it to you. If you selected the frame option then I can not ship it. This print does not come with a frame. You can either have it with matt or without matt. Those are your only options.
