This park is the location of the big Snodeo every winter. Little Diamond Pond is the water here and up the road is Big Diamond Pond. The hill is a big one yes drive up
follow signs to the Camping area. Park in the lot on the right The visitor building is in front of you

Box #1 There is a big brown building behind you
This is the recreational building. It used to be the warming hut for all the cold skidooers.
The wrap around porch looks like a great hiding spot.
Walk up to take a look around , see the granite step on the left side? reach in behind on the left as you facing them to find old Bill.

Box #2 after you look around, I think you can go in. go back down the steps. the front left corner of this same building under the porch reach through the lattice is Grampas favorite winter past time. (I've been told this one is tricky, number 2 is at the opposite end of the granite steps as #1)

Box #3 walk toward the boat launch sign on the right side of the road is a spruce tree and a cluster of birch trees. look at the base of the spruce, guess the smell of Grampas apartment.....

Box #4 Head down toward the water you will see a 3 sister silver birch on the right....ok maybe this was Grampas favorite winter past time oh yeah not just winter I think it was a 4 season attraction

Box # 5 over sort of behind the visitor building is a green dumpster you can see walk the tree line see the white pipe on the edge? just after it is a very large tree with 25 on it look at the base to find out what every grampa should have in a jar to spoil grand kids

Please be very careful it is a state campground people are around. Rehide as if it were your own.
