Enjoyed a walk on a warm March day. This park has 342 acres in a narrow strip between Highway 64 and the Missouri Bluffs Country Club. The sound of the highway traffic is ever present.

Looks like lots of trails being added for that and I think it ruins the peaceful atmosphere of being in the woods at these parks. Every park does not have to have...
