Superstition Mountains - Lost Dutchman State Park near Apache Junction, Arizona. This is one of my favorite places to visit. The mountains here have lots of different looks. Especially starting a few hour before sunset. The mountain bike trail here is also pretty neat riding through the different types of cactuses etc. Most of its pretty easy except some places are a little too rocky.

Come along with me to the Highest Point in Missouri, Located in the Saint Francois Mountains near Ironton, Missouri In order to get to the Highest Point in Missouri, you’ll have to take part of the Mina Sauk Falls Trail. There is a Concrete path to the highest point, so it is easy to get there. However, if you want to get to the Mina Sauk Falls, you’ll have another 1.2 miles to go. The trail starts off wide and easy to walk on, then it gets rockier and steeper as you go. Not super hard, but challenging for some folks. The trail is well marked with red squares and you can hear the falls as you approach them. As for me, it was well worth the hike! I hope you enjoy the video!

The Metal roof is from Menards, it is Pro-Rib Metal Roof that was off the shelf and cut to fit.
