US-4368 Wachusett Mountain Reservation State Park

Wa! Wa! WaaaaaCHUsett! If you lived in New England in the 1990s you knew the jingle of central Massachusetts' biggest ski area by heart. It was heavily advertised during the season and if you didn't know quite exactly where it was situated, you knew the name.

NO-0912 Jostedalsbreen National Park

Jostedalsbreen national park is the home Europe’s largest remaining ice cap, the Jostedal glacier. With it’s 1310 square kilometers (323 k acres) it’s set up to protect some of the most amazing scenery in Western Norway. The park is one of the largest intact wilderness areas in the country, and as with all nature it’s […]

US-8417 Mt. Tom State Reserve

Mt. Tom was the first place I revisited after hitting 100 unique parks, which should tell you something about its appeal. The major attraction at Mt. Tom is classic Holyoke basalt. And dinosaur tracks.

NO-2533 Frafjordheiane landscape reserve

When people think about Norwegian nature, they usually think about deep fjords surrounded by tall snow-capped mountains. A perfect example of that is Frafjordheiane landscape reserve, located in Western Norway. Frafjordheiane is more than just mountains though, in the lower parts you’ll find rivers, lakes and lush forests, and in the higher parts you find […]

GB-1012 GREAT ORME COUNTRY PARK

The Great Orme is a headland formed of Limestone jutting out into The Irish Sea. Situated on the Coast of North Wales, one of the four Countries of the United Kingdom. My visit today was to revisit another favourite place of Elaine (My XYL) and myself, the Town of Llandudno , a seaside resort and […]

US-11621 Copicut WMA

Once you get in, this isn't a bad spot to operate from. But oh, getting in!

GB-1180 Moel Famau Country Park on a misty eyed morning in March 2025

This park has an affinity with me for so many reasons. The first time I visited it was in 1968, when I was an excited 7 year old. It was the first time I was away from home on a school camping trip in an adventure centre called Colomendy, which was situated in Loggerheads at […]

US-2416 Ames Nowell SP

I’m not a mountain-biker, but boy, do I love those guys. The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, and for state parks and forests in my area there are often just a small number of marked trails, mainly loops that cater to casual hikers and dog-walkers. When the bikers move in, they create intricate meshes […]

GB-0131 Mersey Narrows and North Wirral Foreshore SPA/SAC/Ramsar Conservation Reserve

This park stretches along the northern edge of the Wirral Peninsula, locally know for a few Nature reserves and country Parks. For me the best location for operating from it is in the Town of New Brighton. It is now a 2fer with the newly established King Charles III Coastal Path GB-0711, which runs along […]

US-4702 F. Gilbert Hills SF

I’ve hiked Gilbert Hills for many years, long before I became active with POTA. One reason is that it’s close to my QTH, and Gilbert Hills and nearby US-8383 Wrentham State Forest (it’s right across the street from Gilbert Hills) are my ‘home’ parks for all sorts of POTA experiments and casual activations. Another is […]
