Today we went hiking at Grand Gulf State Park (Missouri) and Mammoth Spring State Park (Arkansas).
I’d heard that people sometimes call it “Little Grand Canyon”, and definitely wanted to check it out. After visiting, I can see what they mean.
It’s 130 feet to the bottom. At certain times of the year, this canyon can fill up all the way to where we were standing. The water drains out through the cave at the bottom, travels underground, and ends up at Mammoth Spring in Arkansas.
We’ve driven by Mammoth Spring on the way to many adventures in Florida. Today was our first time to stop. It was quite a site to see, and we enjoyed walking the trail around the spring.
