    MO trip reccomendations, June 13-15

    I need some ideas on a location to take a couple of 12 yr old boys hanging in south east MO. Would like to have a place that was close the parking lot (because I'm out of shape...) and next to a river/stream for fishing and swimming. Or perhaps a short loop that we could hike. Other activities that would entertain the boys close by would be a plus.

    What are your thoughts? Perhaps there would be others that would like to join us?

    This looks like an option, but from what information I can find, camping is limited to designated campgrounds. I was hoping for a trail loop that would lead to and perhaps follow a river that we could set up camp anywhere along the trail.

    The Ozark trail is on the other side of the current river. Just cross the bridge.

    Or, an offshoot of the OT, how about the loop around council bluff lake? Don't know if that's too far from you or not.
