Ahead on this edition of Ozarks: a walk around the trails at Lake Fayetteville will take you past acres of charred land. We learn about the benefits of prescribed burns such as these. Plus not one, but two area towns are in the running to take over the March Madness bracket of the Greatest Southern Town.
