This is stupid. At first I thought the guy was giving the usual westerner smack about eastern mountains being mere hills. Then I discover that he is saying that the mountains twenty miles away in Oklahoma are more impressive than the one in Arkansas.

Hey, Einstein, the reason it appears that way is because HW 259 in Oklahoma runs straight up the side of some pretty impressive hills over there while HW 71 mostly threads its way through the valleys and only crosses at gaps and never gets up as high as HW 259.

Eastern Oklahoma is where the Ouachitas peter out. They have hills there, and it is mountainous around Talihina. But most of highway 69 threads through the minor edge of the Ouachitas. I love geology.
