Roved around the State Park hitting the 3 different State Wildlife Area's inside of the park. Not in the POTA system yet, but should be down the road.
No roadside activation at one of these State Natural Area's. No parking available so I went full portable.
Premapped out the one I had to hike into so I knew I would be in the boundries.
Stopped for a quick picture on my way around the park.
The view at my second stop in the park. The bay of Green Bay.
Alexloop on 30m FT8.
Leaves colors are changing here, couldn't have picked a better day to do this. Made for a nice drive.
At the last stop on 40m FT8 / FT4.
