The one that started at all.

as the year of one long giant road trip morphs into my second year, I Stumbled across this gem. The Midwest conservation areas have usually been a place where I stop to recuperate away from all the hustle and bustle and find comfort in particular areas such as these. Today I came across the Lead Mine Conservation area on my way to Springfield MO and this one was obviously a ways out of my way; but, upon entering it worth every mile lost. Easily one of the largest (open spaces) I have come across, this place is gorgeous! With are several areas to camp And hike without ever brushing shoulders with another human (if you like that that sort of thing). For being out in the middle of nowhere Missouri it was shockingly well kempt meaning free of vandals and every day wear and tear from Mother Nature. Places to park your RV hook up to septic (I believe). For sure water! Nevertheless having witnessed this remarkable statement made to conserve and preserve Missouri and its beauty! I look forward to continue my writings & reviews across the country merely based from my personal experience and opinion. Keep doing what you’re doing #Missouri this place is pretty cool.
