A short trail leads to two overlooks with views of a natural, free-flowing segment of the Missouri River, where the river still meanders through the countryside much as it did in Lewis and Clark's day. The first overlook provides information about the Missouri National Recreational River and early American Indians who inhabited the region. The uppermost overlook interprets the river's hydrology, the surrounding forest, and a flood that devastated the town of Vermillion. The paved trail rises 60 feet to the top and is wheelchair accessible to the first overlook.
