Route Climbed: Paved Trail Date Climbed: July 26, 2004
My wife and I drove here on our way out west and it was a welcome rest from the drive. The weather was warm and breezy. Not busy at all for how nice an area it is. Tried to go up the fire tower but the hatch was locked at the top. Oh well it was still good to see God's creation from a different perspective.
Route Climbed: General Route and Mina Sauk Falls Date Climbed: 5/14/05
There was heavy rain on the way to the highpoint, but it cleared up nicely when I got there. These are small mountains with very nice scenery. I hiked the 3 miles round trip via the Mina Sauk Falls Trail. It was really nice viewing the multiple waterfalls in the area. Highpoint#28!!!
Route Climbed: Paved Walk form Parking Lot Date Climbed: September 2004
Geez, this one was too easy. It's ADA accessible and a bit of nothing. I recommend the trail to the falls, it is a nice walk through the woods, especially in the fall.

Date Climbed: April 2004Nothing spectacular, but the drive through the Ozarks (I think) to get there was interesting.

Date Climbed: July 1969I hiked these trails and mountain when I was a 14 year old kid. Beautiful area. That trip made me want to see more
mountains. Now I live in California and hike every weekend.
