阿肯色州的山脈

奧沙克山(Ozark Mountains)位於東部的阿帕拉契山區及西部的洛磯山脈間，它是兩山之間的最大山脈。

阿肯色州的奧沙克山也許曾被命名為Aux Arc，這是1700年代時，當地的一個法國交易站；在法國，Aux Arc意即「鞠躬」(at the bow)。當地的石灰岩極容易被侵蝕，而且是許多獨特地理景觀的成因，如：洞穴、排水口及地下溪流；奧沙克地區也以民俗工藝及戶外活動而聞名。


The Ozark Mountains of Arkansas are the largest mountain range between the Appalachian Mountains in the East and the Rocky Mountains in the West.

The Ozark Mountains of Arkansas may have been named for Aux Arc, a French trading post located there in the 1700s. In French, Aux Arc means "at the bow." The limestone that is found there wears away easily and is responsible for many unusual geographic features, such as caves, sinkholes and underground streams. The Ozarks region is also known for its folk crafts and outdoor recreation.
