If you’re headed to the Runge Nature Center, it’s west of St. Louis and safe enough. We’ve been there a couple of times and it’s very cool.
MDC has many well cared for recreation areas and some that are “natural.”
The Fiery Fork area and Burnt Mill Cave properties are as wild as they were when Daniel Boone came through...
Thanks, I’ll have to look it up. Can’t remember anything these days. We are on the mailing list thanks to our grand daughter - when she was in third grade she signed up and put down our address. LOL
