Downtown Houston Skyline

Lake Conroe

Piney Woods
The dense, evergreen landscape of East Texas stretching toward the Arkansas border.
Ouachita Mountains
The unique, east-west trending ridges of the Arkansas highlands appearing as you descend.
Hot Springs National Park
The historic spa town and surrounding mountain peaks visible just southwest of Little Rock.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh eastern sun. Watch closely in the first 10 minutes for Houston's skyline and the final 15 minutes for the Ouachita ridges. Clear autumn days provide the best color contrast in the forest canopy.
