Ozark National Forest
Dense, rolling hills and deep valleys offer a dramatic green canopy immediately south of Harrison.
White River
Watch for the turquoise-tinted, serpentine bends of this world-famous trout fishing river cutting through the limestone.
Mississippi River
A breathtaking view of the massive waterway and its active barge traffic as you cross from Arkansas into Tennessee.
Memphis Pyramid
The shiny steel pyramid on the riverfront is a key landmark indicating you are seconds from landing.
Downtown Memphis
Excellent views of the city's historic core and the Hernando de Soto Bridge during the descent into MEM.
The right side is highly recommended for the descent. For the most dramatic views, book a sunset flight to see the Mississippi River reflect the orange sky. Keep your camera ready as you cross the river for the best city shots.

Bull Shoals Lake
Visible shortly after departure, look for the sprawling blue waters and jagged shoreline of this massive reservoir.
Arkansas Delta Grids
As the hills flatten, view the intricate geometric patterns of rice and soybean fields that define the region's agriculture.
Crowley's Ridge
A unique geological formation rising 250 feet above the flat Delta, covered in lush hardwood forests.
Sit on the left for the best lighting during afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is ideal for spotting the unique geography of Crowley's Ridge as you approach the Tennessee border.
