From jct I-70 & US 161: Go 1 mi W on I-70, then go 1 mi NW on CR-TT.
The place was empty when i visited in december. The cave is closed off with a wire fence to prevent visitors from taking home arrowheads. Very good treks around the site
The road down to the parking lot was iced over so we had to park at the park information center and walk down. We did find the path off to the left of the cave that led back to the road and saved us from walking back up most of the hill back to our cars. Lots of critter tracks in the snow..deer, rabbit and a possible bobcat.
It was a fun day out with the family. The cave was really fun to see. The kids had fun playing on the playground, and the area is beautiful. There were a couple of nice places to have picnics and what looked to be a nice camping area. I'm looking forward to going back to camp sometime.
We really enjoyed it. The place was very clean, kept up and information stations very helpful and educational. The paved walk was short and easy, the little nature trail that looped us back around was very pretty and easy as well.
This is such a nice historic state park off highway 70. If you are looking for a little stop between your travels, this is a great spot, especially with kids. There are picnic tables and BBQ areas throughout. There are short and long hiking trails with some little sights. This park has a unique man made cave that you can hike over to.
There is also a little playground with a jungle gym and slides for young kids. Restrooms for use as well. Make sure you don't drop in without atleast walking over to the cave and clean up after yourself.
