The inscription on this pink granite boulder reads: An ancient Indian trail once passed this boulder skirting the forest along the Des Plaines River through groves of wild plum and hazel thickets. Eastward the tall grass of the prairie stretched as far as the eye could reach. Later it served as a road for the early settlers in the long months when the flooded prairies were impassable. May those who now follow this trail gain comfort from nature's peace and beauty. 1942
