Every time I visit my boyfriend from LA to STL, we try to find places to explore. Some places we definitely will go back and Shaw Nature Reserve is one of them. The Trail Horse Loop Road and Quarry Road were closed when we were there, so we spent some time (less than an hour) walking to the Broadway loop via some trails. Landscape there is quite touching.
