Tourist attraction Nature preserve

👍👍 I used to live right below it, before it was open to the public. Today we went to the cemetery,both caves and the old chimney took our hammock and 2 dogs. After our journey we set up the hammock and relaxed with the nature. Only bad thing was people need to have more respect with taking there garbag...

    I used to live right below it, before it was open to the public. Today we went to the cemetery,both caves and the old chimney took our hammock and 2 dogs. After our journey we set up the hammock and relaxed with the nature. Only bad thing was people need to have more respect with taking there garbage back out with them. And to respect the dead someone knocked all the stones over not cool at all.

    Tried to hike these trails with my 3 kids (all under 10) and it was just not possible. The only way in had huge hills and cliffs which I imagine had lots of great views but you couldnt get to the top with littles. Not a single trail marker or map to show you where the heck to go. Really wanted to find the cool rocks and caves in the other pictures but it just wast possible for us..

    Beautiful place to hike and play! Rock hunting and climbing. Gorgeous landscape near the river with awesome views!! I'm not going to give it a low rating because of other people's trash, be responsible. !!!! If you bring it in, take it out !!!! Bring a sack and pick up some to take out, be mindful of broken glass.

    Easy access with parking for a dozen or so vehicles at the trail head. Throughout the unit are open fields surrounded by forest. The perimeter of the fields have been mowed, making for a lot of easy walking. I found no easy access from Chief Wapello trail to the mowed areas. I used maps on my cell, satellite view, to find my way around.

    Nice trails but could use a little cleaning. Also word of warning it is located down a back gravel road and felt a little creepy at times.
