   Tucked into the southwest corner of the White Rock Wildlife Management Area, not far from Fort Smith, Shores Lake is one of those little gems of the Ozarks. Found at the end of Arkansas Route 215, White Rock Mountain View - White Rock WMA, Mulberry, AR this cozy little park setting and campground site is a great introduction to the White Rock Mountain Area. This wonderful reflective view shows off the 82 acre lake, the recreation area’s main feature. Noted for its handicapped friendly accessibility, fishing, picnicking, camping, hiking and boating round out the bundle of lakeside recreation activities.
   Arkansas, famous for the Ozarks, is fortunate to have over a million acres of Ozark National Forest. Here in the Boston Mountain Ranger District, the mountain scenery is spectacular, and only grows better when fall’s colors sweep across the mountainsides. The Shores Lake Loop Trail allows visitors to explore a land of waterfalls and upland forests of hardwoods, shortleaf pines and plenty of wildlife. The forest also becomes a special sight in the spring when dogwood and redbud are in full bloom. One of five of the state’s wilderness areas, Shores Lakes is one of the unique forest attractions in the Ozarks.
