Trip starts out at the crystal clear water of the Meramec Spring & rainbow trout hatchery. Truly an amazing spot to either catch fish or see some amazing natural beauty.
The second half of this trip is to Meramec Caverns, truly a gem here in the great state of Missouri. If you're into caves, the jungle area which is not seen in this video is certainly worth seeing!
