The OT runs from just west of Little Rock to Talihina (Ok). Our plan has us doing the trail from East to West.

We also would have the advantage that Francis could pick us up after we finish (Talihina is about a 3 hour drive from Norman).
We have purchased our plane tickets to Little Rock so we are committed! Here are some key dates for our planned hike:
