This project on public lands within the Missouri National Recreational River (MNRR) will remove exotic and invasive species from 60 acres, create 3.5 miles of back country trails, create 10 primitive campsites, and clear approximately 50 trees from vista points. The MNRR will provide daily project oversite and informational and educational programs about the MNRR and their importance of the project to the park.
