Wildlife Refuge

Now that things are finally starting to cool off some, it's the perfect time to head to the mountains and do a little camping. It's looking like the weather will be around the mid-sixties and even in the mid-fifties for the next several days and weeks so there's plenty of time to get out there and enjoy it.

The visitor's center in the Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refugee is officially back open! It's been closed for a little over 2 years due to the COVID-19 pandemic but has just reopened to the public.

Yesterday Kelso and I decided to take a quick lunch break and head to the mountains. It's been forever since I've driven through the refuge, not to mention up Mount Scott. All the road repairs have been completed and Mt. Scott is officially reopened. We made a quick stop, grabbed some lunch, and headed to the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge for a short break. It's a great way to get a little R&R in the middle of the workday.

This past weekend the family and I where looking for something to do so we decided to take a little trip to the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. It's been awhile since we've been out there, plus the weather was perfect for a quick hike and picnic. Before we hit the road we checked the TravelOK app to plan our attack and we even found some new places we've never visited before.

The woman in this video is charged by a buffalo and she trips trying to run away from it. So she played dead and it actually worked the buffalo lost interest and eventually walked away. She got lucky, real lucky!
