Tri-County




     Hey ya'll! Welp, one week from now is opening day of archery season and I cannot wait!! We headed out to Tri-County to scope out some of the deer activity. I haven't ever been there before and I really really loved it. Zane and I found a few places that we saw deer traffic so hopefully it'll be a great spot for us.

     For those of you that don't know... Tri-State is a wildlife preserve in Syracuse, Indiana.

    "Tri-County Fish and Wildlife Area is dedicated to providing quality hunting and fishing opportunities while maintaining 3,546 acres of land, with 650 acres of lakes and impoundments. This area is composed of flat to rolling upland fields and gradual to steep slopes of oak-hickory woodlands, falling off to depressions of wetlands. Tri-County includes 10 natural lakes with water depths of 75 feet.
     Tri-County Fish and Wildlife Area was established in 1951. By 1953, formal management of the property was underway. In 1963, a dam was constructed at the outlet of six natural lakes, creating Flatbelly Marsh. This wetland is an important area for migratory waterfowl, furbearers, shorebirds and fish."
