Trail Description:
Toadstool Park is noted for unusual geologic formations and scientifically valuable fossil deposits; an interpretive kiosk at the campground explains and illustrates the area geology. A one-mile loop trail from the picnic area highlights many examples of eroded clay/sandstone formations. Pick up an interpretive brochure at the trailhead to learn about the area's fascinating geology. A reconstructed sod house provides a look into the past when homesteaders on the prairies used the only abundant building material available.
