Summer Overnight Backpacking at Henry W. Coe State Park

7/23/2023 - 7/24/2023 Henry W. Coe State Park - Poverty Flats
The weather forecast showed it was cooling down a bit Sunday-Monday. So I headed over to Henry W. Coe State Park to scout out a creek for some Tenkara fishing. It was still toasty out there.
Unfortunately, I broke a section of the rod from yanking too hard from a snag.
It looks like sections can be purchased here:

It was good to get out. It's been a while since I've gone on a solo trip.
