Hit up the Ozark Trail near Winona, Mo! No one’s ever around. There’s a lot of great spots out there- Greer Spring, Big Spring, Rocky Falls, Current River. There’s a herd of wild horses out near Klepzig Mill. Always great to see. It’s about 2 1/2 hours but well worth it.

good recommendations. i love that area, but i wouldn’t say “no one’s ever around.” nearly every campground on the current and jacks fork is full during the summer, and i’ve never seen rocky falls without there being at least a handful of people climbing around (no matter the time of year). it’s nearly as full as johnson shut-ins during the warmer months.

Ah yeah, I meant out on the OT trails themselves. I’m usually out there this time of year to avoid the summer crowds you describe.
