Shidler is out in the Osage, where the tallgrass prairie runs for miles, and its waterfall page holds two entries. Butcher Falls is a tenth of a mile from the car with easy footing the whole way. Osro Falls appears in our data as a name without trail numbers. Water out here follows the storms, so plan a visit for spring or right after a heavy rain, and expect a quiet trickle by August.
