Buffington Island Mound I

This is a conical mound about 20 feet high and with a base diameter of 125 feet. Concrete steps up the side allow you to walk to the top. You cannot see the river from the top of the mound but you can see the river bottom lands. There are supposed to be 2 smaller mounds nearby. We were unable to identify them.
The mound was probably excavated sometime around the beginning of the 20th century but there are no records of the work. The mound was restored in 1931 and is in good condition.

The mound is located on the Buffington Island Battle Memorial.
