This is a really cool
building! It has been called Sedalia's "Castle on the Hill."
The state did a great job of placing the entrance to the
place, so that you get a chance to appreciate the view of the
lodge from the valley below.
There
are guided tours 7 days a week, year round. (See the website below
for hours and fees.) The building itself is worth the tour, but the
site chosen for it is spectacular!
For more information on this state
historic site, please go to this site:

Please go
to the above coordinates and read the plaque you find
there. As proof you were there, please email me
the answer to this question: How much did Bothwell's car
weigh?
My Intention here is that you
ACTUALLY VISIT THE SITE.
You should also check out the antique
steam engine at the store near the entrance of the park.
By the way, there is a traditional
cache only a couple hundred meters away.
Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy
your visit!
