The 78-acre Meissner Island Division is located in Monroe County, Illinois, between River Mile 153.5 and 155.5. It is less than 20 river miles from St. Louis' southern suburbs. Due to its small size and limited access, little active management can be done on Division lands. The former cropland acreage is naturally regenerating with silver maple, willow and cottonwood. Mast-producing trees such as bur oak and hackberry have also been planted at this site. Meissner Island Divison is open to archery deer and upland game hunting in accordance with state regulations.
