Sale Common Nature Conservation Reserve VKFF-2431

After having lunch in Sale headed to my next park, Sale Common Nature Conservation Reserve VKFF-2431. Drove South on the South Gippsland Hwy, turning off to the park on a road on the left before a bridge. Sign for the park and a car park.




Took the track at the end of the car park.


A sign detailing some of the history of the Sale Game Reserve. Apparently was quite large.


Reached a junction, straight ahead to the boardwalk, or right to a lookout.


A map of the park here.


At the junction a cleared area with a picnic table. For a park activation picnic tables are great, headed for it and set up.


Squid pole attached to the table, dipole laid out across the cleared area.


Radio on the table. Quite nice in the sun, although there were mosquitoes here. I was mostly covered, just kept annoying my hands which were not.




Started by working on 40m, a park to park with VK3ZPF Peter in VKFF-2058 Buxton Silver Gum Nature Conservation Reserve
