Clarks Hill -Osage City MO - Cairns on Waymarking.com

Burial Mounds discovered by Lewis and Clark in 1804 can be seen by hiking about 1/4 of a mile up a wooded trail at Clark's Hill/Norton State Park.

Continue another 1/4 mile for a great view the Missouri and Osage rivers.

"In June 1804, the Lewis and Clark Expedition camped at the base of the hill at the confluence of these two rivers. On June 2, 1804, William Clark ascended the hill to make observations about both rivers and record in his journal. Today, visitors can journey through the wooded area to the top of Clark’s Hill and see the rock where he stood and viewed these two rivers. On the way up the hill, visitors will pass two Indian mounds that Clark wrote about in his journal. Several interpretive panels along the trail discuss the Lewis and Clark Expedition." (visit link)
