The mountain itself remained public land until 1861 when purchased by John Hughes's son, Mahlon Hughes and afterwards remained in the Hughes family until it was purchased by the Missouri Conservation Commission in 1982. At that time it was designated a State Natural Area.〔Missouri Department of Conservation -- Missouri Dept. of Natural Resources, Natural Area Nomination Form 1982〕
