Echo Bluff – 11/23/2019

We had a weekend trip planned for Echo Bluff State Park. Echo Bluff is a fairly new state park in Missouri. We were going there to celebrate the Missouri Stream Team’s 30th anniversary. We shared a large cabin with two other couples and had plenty of space!

This is actually a duplex. First floor is one rental. Second and third floor (what we had) is a separate rental.

Danelle had her own activities going on, so the kids and I had plenty of time to hang out together. We did go out for a fantastic group hike!

This overlook was up on top of the bluff looking back on much of the park.

Sonora wanted to pet the wild horses behind her.

The hiking trail had several sections set up for mountain bikers to test their skills. Corvin and I looked longingly thinking about taking our unicycles over this, but both know deep down that we’re not quite skilled enough for this!

Looking from the second floor at the inside of the main lodge. We played several board games and enjoyed the fire.

On our way home, we stopped by nearby Devil’s Well. Since it was very cold outside, the well felt warm.

Looking down into the well.

A quick family selfie.

After this we headed home.
