One thought on “Wolfe Property State Park

  1. I was kayaking in the Hood Head area on Monday, 9/13/21 and stopped off to check out the Wolfe Property CMT site. It appeared that some maintenance work (brush and weed removal) had recently been done at the site, but someone has removed the cross arms from the north end of the kayak storage rack, rendering it unusable. Whoever did the maintenance may have noted and reported it, but thought I would report it to you guys incase they did not.
