Wetland, East Fork State Park

Ohio's East Fork State Park, an artificial wetland area near the Afton, Ohio entrance. It is accompanied by 3 satellite ponds, of various sizes, not shown on this post but clearly here: 39.0456,-84.118448





On this early November day, numerous tadpoles wiggled out from the shore proximity. They may or may not be visible in this closeup of the water's edge.

Hidden intersection, East Fork State Park

Two paths diverge in this intersection from the old side roads - abandoned and neglected, visible only from foot traffic and blowing winds. This intersection is hidden from main park road coming in from the Afton entrance of Ohio's East Fork State Park. The road on which I'm standing for the photographs is probably a remnant of Zagar Road where it met Half Acre Road (this subject to future editing after I consult my wrinkled, aged county map). These photos were taken 180 degrees from each other at 39.046772, -84.118389. I stumbled across this navigational bifurcation by taking a pathless trek across tangled weeds "And that has made all the difference"
