Graham Cave State Park

One rainy day in late fall, we drove to a little known park - Graham Cave State Park,  nestled in the scenic hills above the Loutre River. {located in Montgomery County, Missouri}

Graham Cave State Park was named after, Robert Graham,  the first settler who owned the cave property.

In 1816, Robert Graham bought some bottom land along the Loutre River from Daniel Boone's son, Daniel Morgan Boone, and in 1847 purchased the property that housed the cave.
It remained in the Graham family until it was transferred to the Sate of Missouri in 1964 .

The rain let up long enough for us to walk one of the trails. It was a brisk walk uphill and the views were absolutely gorgeous! The trip back down was more challenging because of the winding paths that had become slick due to the rain. The damp cold air was piercing, making it a perfect day for welcoming a cuppa hot tea.

We'd like to return to this park when the weather is better and see the cave itself for which the park is named.

TEAriffic day to you all,
Viktorija and Aaron
