Local Oklahoman traveling around Oklahoma and Arkasas hiking and photographing area waterfalls. He started talking to people about waterfalls around Oklahoma, asking where are some waterfall locations in the area that could be photographed.. The answer, usually was, waterfalls, in Oklahoma?? No way, Oklahoma's too flat. Or I wouid hear that Turnerfalls, That's the only waterfall in Oklahoma. So Mike started asking the question: Where is Oklahoma's waterfalls?? The answer: All over Oklahoma.. So he started working on what he thought was a small undertaking, turning into a larger project faster then he had thought. With a trusty camera, 100 foot tape meausre, a small notepad and a sturdy pare of hiking boots. Mike has been photographing waterfalls around Oklahoma for alittle over a year now, is not even found the quarter mark yet. His list of to finds is growing even faster as he gets out to talk to locals, he does his best to locate and photograph falls whenever he can. From Freedom to West Siloam Springs, and from Blackwell to Arbuckle Mountians, his journy is evergoing and evergrowing. Mike also known as The Wolf Traveler started his research to hopefully write a book to educate Oklahomas and others around the U.S. of just how beautiful Oklahoma is.. And he also hopes to start conservation efferts to help protect these areas for future generations to come...

I've lived in OKlahoma my entire life. I've been to TurnerFalls and the waterfalls around that area, but I'd really like to see more pictures and find out locations of some of these beautiful waterfalls. Is there a website that Mike has?

The waterfall pictures are awesome. I'd like to see more waterfalls and learn where they are located. Have you ever been to the waterfall at McCurtain?

I've seen the Dover falls nearby but I didn't know if it was real or man made as it seems to be a bit too perfect.
