This is one of the Best views of Arkansas I have ever viewed.
Atop the Tower it seems like one can see forever.
The Cost is only $1.00 to walk(climb) to the top and see more of Arkansas that you ever will anywhere else.
The Boston Mountian Route is my favorite drive through the area.
So come on over and see if you agree.
It is also Benchmark FH0933 for those that like interesting benchmarks.
