While we were in Idaho to see family over the holidays, Morgan (N7WBV) convinced me to do a quick activation for the New Year’s award. I grew up in the area and it’s been a long time since I’ve been to Malad Gorge, especially in the winter.

The Park is Malad Gorge State Park – but it’s a sub-park of Thousand Springs State Park. The area is beautiful in the summer and exploring all the various parts of Thousand Springs State Park is great fun.

We activated this park last summer as well, but at a slightly different location bordering on the Billingsley Creek Wildlife Management Area.
