The Little Blakely Loops consist of about 18 miles of trail in 5 loops plus connectors on a peninsula on the east side of Lake Ouachita. This is USFS property north of the state park. USFS info. Trail head is at 34.6285, -93.1992. Jan ’15 trip, Nov ’15 trip.
If I lived closer, it would be my preferred place for a regular day-hike. The best place for lake views is south and southwest of the parking area where the trail hugs the shoreline.
Updated Jan 17 2018: Freshened the map style.
Updated 8-14-16 only to freshen the symbol styles and make it consistent with my other maps.
Updated 11-8-2015: I got tracks for the missing trail segments so the map is now complete.

Thanks for the map. Did the hike yesterday and had some confusion at K. We were trying to go from K to H, but ended up at F. Wrong direction and everything. Probably user error, but we were very confused. Also, for anyone using this map, it is missing E and D, but they are pretty easy to figure out once on the trial.
I omitted points E & D since they weren’t junctions. I’m not sure I even saw markers for them.
Great map! One of the few that is truly accurate.
