Pond_at_39.045674,-84.122747

East Fork State Park, near Afton, Ohio, my 1.9 mile excursion to a pond at GPS coordinates 39.045674,-84.122747.  Going in from the main park road, Afton Entrance, was easy.



But then I began to see lots of deadfall.


There were a number of these low plants with small red, flat, boat-shaped berries.


Behold the pond in this rather pitiful stitched pano:

The runoff erosion from the spillway contained abandoned treasure. Note the various stems of tough wild roses and honeysuckle that made walking through this area very difficult.


En route to its neighboring pond (above), I found some fence posts the residents had cut and stacked back in the early 1970's. There were also some others resting nearby.
