After the Arkhoma Cluster ended, we had some time to fill before my next herding clinic in the St. Louis area. So, we went to a few state parks in Missouri for Hiking! We went to Roaring River State Park, and hiked the ridge trail and the river trail. We then made a pit stop at the Wilder Farm in Mansfield, MO, and Big Springs National Recreation area, followed by a trip to Echo Bluff state park, where we hiked the river path, and found the Bluff for swimming!
This was also the last week of the semester, so I had to wrap up a lot of school and work things at these wonderful campsites.
