We had been talking for Turkey run state park.
I have no idea what we can see there, but I know how i can get there from 61953. It is 1h 22min away.
Let see what we could see
They have a Nature center . Spiking about nature - the Geology section informs we can see Mansfield sandstone gorges represent 600 to 300 million years of nature's handiwork. This deposit was formed during the Carboniferous Period.
The swampy environment of this period gave birth to vast coal deposits. Coal was mined here in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Seams of coal are still visible along many of the trails.The swampy environment of this period gave birth to vast coal deposits. Coal was mined here in the late 1800's and early 1900's.

More recently, during the Pleistocene Epoch, the sandstone bedrock was carved into today's familiar canyons and formations by the eroding action of glacial meltwaters. The Punchbowl on Trail 3 is an example of a pothole that was scoured out by glacial erratics caught in swirling backwash. Erratics are pieces of bedrock from Canada that were carried here by the glaciers. Some of the larger erratics, or boulders, can still be seen in Boulder Canyon on Trail 9, and smaller ones, pebbles, in Sugar Creek.
