👍👍 Such a beautiful place!! The conservation officers were so helpful in helping us figure out our next stops with their suggestions. They gave us a map with our next moves circled and we went on our way. We had a great time here. The spring is beautiful and the caves were cool to check out too.

👍 Very educational, even with being in the mining industry. Highly recommended for a group or family trip. Found it on my way to Arnold, Missouri. Stopped by on the way back to where I'm staying.

👍 It's a very pretty place to start on the Katy Trail. I recently rode from Machens to Augusta (40 miles for my 40th Birthday) on Halloween. The only "bad" thing is that it's not very well marked as the trailhead, and there's no actual parking lot. It's just a weird gravel road and no real sign plainl...
