things to do

Miner's Memorial Park & Big Muskie Bucket
​​
Big Muskie was the largest dragline ever built and an engineering marvel. Today, visitors can climb inside the bucket and imagine what it took to make such an enormous thing move.

​The Wall of Honor is another highlight of the area, showcasing past and present employees of Central Ohio Coal Company, the AEP subsidiary that operated the Big Muskie. In addition to the memorial features found in this part of the park, visitors can enjoy a picnic area with shelter and a scenic overlook of the area.
