Botzum Station Details

Formerly known as Indian Mound Station, Botzum was once home to a small canal village that has now vanished without a trace. It's now the location of a sewage treatment plant, which you'll want to avoid, but also serves as a popular spot for viewing great blue herons on the Cuyahoga River.
