Missouri High Point #4

Over spring break, we decided to go to the highest point in Missouri. We have the goal as a family to go to the highest point in every state. Some are super easy, and others will obviously be pretty difficult. Missouri was our fourth high point. The highest point in Missouri is Taum Sauk Mountain, and it was a super easy 'hike'. I say 'hike' because we drove to the state park, and then there was a paved trail to the top. And there was almost no incline. It took us maybe two minutes to walk it. It was probably the easiest high point we've done. Iowa probably would have been easier, but because it was winter went we went there, and we got stick in the snow, I rank it as harder than Taum Sauk Mountain.

We have had the worst luck with weather every time we've attempted a high point. As you can see, it snowed when we did this one, and I mentioned earlier that is snowed in Iowa and we got stuck. When we did Tim's Hill in Wisconsin it rained a little bit, and when we did Eagle Mountain in Minnesota it poured on us the first half of the hike. Hopefully for our next one will have nicer weather!
