The site of BOON'S LICK TRAIL, NE. corner West Broadway and McBaine Ave., the
pioneer trail that extended between St. Louis and Franklin, passing through
Columbia, is marked by a red-granite shaft erected by the D.A.R in 1913.
The Boone's Lick Trail actually extended from St. Charles to Franklin. The marker remains in place however it appears to have been moved to the other
side of Broadway at sometime, most likely when Broadway was expanded four lanes. |
